sizewise i'd say 1lb of gold is about the same size as a *wine cork*! according to the live e-gold statistics page at http://stats.e-gold.com there are around 200 e-gold account holders with a wine cork sized chunk of e-gold in their account :) --- 12 troy ounces per pound gold: density 19300 kg / m^3 work it thru - 1.06 inches per side of a cube - a little bigger than a 6 sided game die. nearby wine cork is about 7/8 inch diameter and 1 3/4 inches long which is just over 1 inch cubed. --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use e-gold's Secure Randomized Keyboard (SRK) when accessing your e-gold account(s) via the web and shopping cart interfaces to help thwart keystroke loggers and common viruses.
