group- several have said, effect "forget using pounds" and I'll bet more
have thought it.

But- Lisa has made, to me, a very valid point--

If grams and kilos are so great-- why dont the vendors sell it that way???
(My wording, not hers)

To do a valid estimate of your purchase needs- you MUST be able to work
from use, in grams, to acquisition, in pounds.

I'm the scientist type, who people expect to push metric- but I say- you do
what you have to do.
