When I did the calculation in grad school, the cutoff was Osmium. Any element lighter than Osmium cannot be over-loaded into a small flat rate box.

That sounds really familiar.  Almost like I knew that, despite what I just posted.  I'm having a really weird dilemma right now in my brain. . .

I'm not sure if my calculations were wrong, or if I just remembered the outcome wrong because "Osmium" is really tripping off my deja-vu sensor.
On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], "Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?" I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question.

The offspring is bastardized-quasi-human, and should be afforded the protection of a human fetus IMO.

We did that with Democrats, and look where it got us.
