    i can't figure why this thread's still popping up, the first time i read it didn't make sense, so tonight i re-read it (the first post) it still don't add up, what you're claiming is that 500# @ .11 = .50 and then saying 500# @ .13 = .50



    i think you really need to calibrate your calculator

    Wile I see that yes a pound is a pound if you work it in a proper comparison it equals out . I feel this thread does represent one factor , questioning NET or GROSS . Finally I am figuring that there is a NET and a GROSS, thats one small step and a continuing step closer to distancing me from the average person on the street.
    ---------------------
    So If you are offered $220 per ton from two different yards
    what would you do ?
    For me previous to this thread I would go to who is closest
    but there is another factor - 240 pounds that I have to carry or not.
