The Nuke is 17.7oz, the Non Nuke is 16.9oz. For those that are mathematically challenged, the Nuke is only 0.8oz lighter. I was expecting a bit more of a difference (I don't know why). To put in perspective, that's the weight of 4 quarters.
DOH Lol. It's the new math!!I must be mathematically challenged.
I thought 17.7oz was 0.8oz heavier that 16.9oz.
Good thing I dropped out of engineering school.
I have a funny story about "new math". ~18 years ago my son was struggling with long division. I was always pretty good with math, so I was helping him. Soon I realized he was using some convoluted way of doing it, and he said that was how his teacher taught them. After awhile I decided it was BS, so I showed him the more direct and easy way I learned ~55 years ago, and I told him to do it my way, and if his teacher objected then I told my son to tell his teacher I wanted to talk with him. Well, my son went straight to his math teacher and said "my dad wants to talk with you". The funny thing was, I never did hear from the teacher!... It's the new math!!
