Leaves and feathers weigh about the same... But if it was a pound of steel or a pound of feathers.... Then there might be a difference 😉
 
oh, yeah


so a pound of enriched uranium with a gold cladding would be heaviest of ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
 
Actually, a pound of gold is weighed different that a pound of say, iron, since gold is considered a precious metal, it has a different scale for it. Gold and other precious metals are weighed in troy ounces and they are 12 troy ounces to a pound. Where as say iron is weighed in regular ounces which are 16 to a pound. So one pound of gold would be 12 ounces and one pound of feathers or leaves, or iron would be 16 ounces

Yes, but only the chocolate is capable of increasing its weight. A moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips, and all that rot.
