Posting a SCALE on this forum?  What are you thinking??  (Just kiddin')  Or
is this what happens when we renounce our old weight-weeny ways?  Note:  I
still weighed the parts as I was building up my Bleriot.  Old habits die
hard.

A _scale_ is merely a device for measuring weight.  What one decides to do
about it is the important question.

Me, I like a little heft in my bike.  A scale is good to make sure it
doesn't get too light.   Sometimes I'll swap stuff between bags and end up
down in the mid-twenties.  Good quick check before you head out and get
pushed all over the place by winds and wingbeats.
