I was just wondering what it would do to your careful calculations if the fish were, say, four inches long. Or six. And didn't eat fish food. My thought would be, having just gone to a museum exhibition about Archimedes, is that the simple question is, which is heavier, fish, or water? Because fish are going to displace their volume in water. If water is heavier, it doesn't matter about the fish, calculate for the water, and the fish will just make it lighter. Or vice versa. The things that we learn from science. Yesterday I was looking over the most recent abstracts posted in PubMed about rheumatoid arthritis, I try to do that every month or so, and there was some interesting looking research on bioflavonoids and phytochemicals and such, stuff found in plants and fruits and teas. Has a beneficial effect on inflammatory arthritis. And some guy in Greece has done research on grape melanin, supposed to work wonders. OK, I say to myself, grape melanin. I can do that. What is it? Danged if I know. I guess it's the dark stuff in dark grape skins. Can't find it on the net. But I am eating grapes as I type. Anyway, your deck sounds good. An architectural marvel. Put together by he-man type construction workers. The best kind.
