What determines what an inch and a pound is?
Dont say an inch is the width of your thumb, all thumbs are different... Im looking for some universal measurment like the shoe of destiny or something that is precisely one foot or the pound rock thats a rock that everything else is based on... What im trying to say is where is the conversion from numbers to something real what is the magic behind measurement who decides exactly how long 1 inch is or exactly how much 1 pound is...
