About 70 kg

Edit: Since you asked specifically for pounds I'm 155 LBS

 

 thank you...pounds > kg

1 cubic meter of water = exactly 1 kg. Does 1 cubic feet of water weigh exactly 1 pound?

That and the decimal scale are what make the metric system the best. How can anyone prefer the imperial system is beyond me.

 

It's really quite simple - they grew up with it.

Don't you use Fahreneit in Southern America (sorry if I'm wrong). Well, celcius does have a fair bit of advantages (water freezes at 0, boils at 100). Still, it's hard to accept Fahreneit as inferior (I'm not completely sure if it is though).

 

No, we use Celsius. We (in Argentina, at least) use all SI units except inches for measuring TV sizes and lb for tyre pressure I can't think of another case of a non-SI unit. And I agree, Celsius is superior, because it's completely logical with 0 and 100 degrees for melting and boiling points of water. Unlike Fahrenheit (I read it was 32 and 200-something, doesn't make sense)

 

So everything is the same as in Norway then.

Well... Err... Your water still runs the wrong way in the sink!

 

I guess my previous post (along with this one) was pretty much useless then. Yay!

 

Hahaha, yeah, true, water runs counterclockwise here. One professor told me once that if the clock had been invented in the Southern Hemisphere, it would run "counterclockwise" (of course, that would be the clockwise standard). Makes you wonder
