    Still can't figure out why everyone here uses pounds instead of kilograms

    
    
    Because a good portion of us are American and haven't made the switch to the metric system. As for the European members, can't answer.
    
    I kinda like the metric system because 113 kilos doesnt sound like as much as 250 pounds

    Mystic Moon
    
    Class: multi-class sysape / code monkey
    Gender: male
    Born: 1975
    Nationality: American (sub species: rural northern Californian)
    Height: 5'11"
    Weight: 160lb
    Profession: IT (in education, as opposed to the Real World)
    Roleplaying preferences: Trying out Mini Six (a stripped-down-to-the-bone Open D6 derivative); previously Star Frontiers, 2300AD, and 1st Ed AD&D. I prefer lightweight systems with an unfinished feel, as those are the easiest to customize (I've banned the word "flexible" from my vocabulary, along with "scalable" and "robust"; ask anyone in IT why.) Plus, they rarely get in the way of a good story.
    Other hobbies: Writing (of course.) An unquenchable curiosity about everything has led me to study, at least cursorily, math, psychology, computer science, biology, mythology/paganism, and history. Open source evangelist (I loves me the Linux.) Playing with web technologies (Django + jQuery = teh win.) I think it's fun to telnet into web servers and manually craft HTTP headers (did I mention I'm a geek?) Also a beginner in Northern Shaolin kung fu, Lan Shou, and Hung Gar. Chinese martial arts are so fascinating :). Of course, being a clumsy bookworm for the past 30+ years does not make it an easy task :(.
    Weakness: My curious nature often leads me to overload on information and causes a serious time deficit. Curses on this mortal body's constant need for sleep and sustenance!
