I just want the old one.... one kilogram of pure platinum. Not worth the imagined millions (except as a possible collectors item) the current value of $26,477.20 would provide a nice little shot in the arm. With that I could get my well sunk and a good house foundation poured. (I would also keep an asortment of the best electrical contacts available.)

So, I'm not totally empty-headed!Vacuum is not Vacuum
At least you got the joke! My puns don't always translate well - at home or abroad!
On the contrary, I think they come straight across...
Particularly if they've eaten a kilogram of baked beans!Some have gas.
I hadn't forgotten either Tim. Hurry up, I'm not getting any younger!
P.S. Talking about kilograms - I've discovered that, whereas the mass of the SP25 MkII platter is 1.88kg, the mass of the SP25 MkIII platter is a mere 0.96kg - and it's slightly smaller in diameter. Newer does not necessarily mean better!
Sometimes I think my life revolves around turntables!

Better than live around revolvers.Sometimes I think my life revolves around turntables!
Nice that we are taking turns to spin this one out!
It was your discs that span. And not only in circumference!
and it's slightly smaller in diameter.
Any dryer?
No point in asking Limmy!Which is heavier: one old kilogram iron or one new kilogram feather?

Dryer than a dry sense of humour!Any dryer?
Which is heavier: one old kilogram iron or one new kilogram feather?
This has an obvious answer - “heavier” implies weight, not mass is being compared. There are at least two reasons the earth would exert a stronger force on the iron than it would the feathers.

Not enough. I need 5 or 6 pounds.
Let's stipulate that both are situated at the same point on the Earth's surface in order to eliminate variations in the Earth's gravitational field strength.There are at least two reasons the earth would exert a stronger force on the iron than it would the feathers.
I'm not shivering besides my iron at the South Pole while you and your feathers bask in the heat at the equator!
