"A man who once weighed nearly 70 stone (980 lb, 445 k.) is to launch legal action against the NHS, claiming they failed to help him as his size soared."http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1344930/Former-worlds-fattest-man-Paul-Mason-sue-NHS-weight-gain.html
Im so sick and tired of people using stone as a unit of measure. This has become popular in the last 5 years online it seems. How much is a stone. I never learned about stone when we learned the metric system.
It isn't part of the metric system.
