U-235.

I feel a bit like a lab rat in here and @fig is the mad scientist.
He's been making us guess numbers and stuff for years.

How come he has access to all that stuff? Multiple matched quad sets for phasers? Suspicious. Pink LEDs that eerily match his enclosures? Please. Maroon pot prophylactic condoms? Now that's scary.
Something's not right I tell you.

What do the numbers mean and what is he really doing with them? (That might be a Severance reference).

And remember: not only does Robert (is that really his name) have your home address, every time you win a contest Fig (you mean prof. Farnsworth?) gets it too, if the two weren't already sharing data.

Just sayin'...

I think fig got my address when I have it to him so he could mail me a certain component that Robert explicitly *chose* to use despite knowing it was EOL unobtanium. Different, but still seems like a cahoot of some sort, if not multiple of them!

I heard you like rock (n' roll), so this much weight?

 

[DyeNaturally]

I think it’s more than the 2-3 gram rock…..although I might rather have that prize….

My guess would be hmmmm.. well I guess….
1,234g. So about 2.75 pounds….

 

[Feral Feline]

Is that in elephants or pecans? My first-year algebra teacher would go full—on ape if you left off the units.

I dig your style. It got me detention though.

Atomic weight, measured by the light of distant stars. Parsecs, I believe.

That's what they feed orbiting elephants when the pecans run out...

Irons down.

The actual weight is 412 grams. I have no idea who won though until I go through the posts.

1 Fbcb-U (Fig’s breadboard component box Units; similar to how prior to 1834, the British parliament defined measures of length and mass by select protected objects, the Fbcb-U is a standard unit of mass defined as the exact mass of the contents of that bod of components (minus box))

It looks like @spi is the winner with 15 oz. or ~425g
