You say a pound is how many grams?!
Just when you thought Yahoo! Answers was a reliable source of information, you see this little gem:
According to pixie66 there are 450 kilograms in a pound (450,000) so all we need to do is multiply how many pounds to 450 (??? 450*450,000 = 202,500,000) and convert that to grams.
There you have it, just shy of a quarter million grams in a pound, just the answer I was looking for!
