−	I've not gonna be around this weekend. If you want to extend H for another week, I'm fine with it, but just be sure to update the [[Current events]] page with the new dates, main page with new deadline, and delete any dibs for I. --[[User:Morbus Iff\|Morbus Iff]] 13:17, 9 Jul 2005 (EDT)	+	{{ResolvedTalk}}

−	~~Hm.. let me run this past you. This is the basis on which I made the decision that the hork could carry James:~~
−
−	~~The entry for [[TransAvian]] states that the weight of a coconut is approximately 9 lugyup.~~
−
−	~~In the entry for the [[Chesix System of Measures]] it is stated:~~
−
−	~~(A) "A cube of water 1 nanit x 1 nanit x 1 nanit will have a mass of 1,331 gyup, equal to 0.86037 lugyup."~~
−
−	~~(B) "1 nanit = 20 centimetres (7.87 inches)"~~
−
−	~~From (B), the cube of water described in (A) measures 20cm on a side. This cube will have a volume of 8 litres.~~
−
−	~~Assuming that water has the same density in Ghyll and Gerth (1 litre weighs approximately 1 kilogram), the cube of water described in (A) weighs approximately 8 kilograms.~~
−
−	From this we can equate 8kg with 0.86037 lugyups. Therefore, 9 lugyups (as mentioned in the Transavian entry) is approximately 83.7kg! It seems the Ghyllian coconuts weigh a lot more than ours. And why not?
−
−	I haven't done much research on Ghyllian physiology, but I haven't found any mention of how much a typical Ghyllian weighs. I'm sure it could be inferred from some combination of entries. However, as long as James weighed less than 80kg, the hork would have been able to carry him. --[[User:Larj Zyquon\|Larj Zyquon]] 11:30, 25 May 2005 (EDT)
