Measure for Measure - Weight
We weigh in at birth and are slaves to the scales for the next three score years and ten.
Whether we're baking a cake, cooking up some chemistry or loading a lorry, we need to know exactly how light or heavy objects are.
When trade started primitive people started to weigh things, at first by simply lifting and comparing.
Some handy object would serve as a crude standard to weigh things against.
A more accurate means of measurement was soon needed and in time someone came up with a machine which along with a wheel
and a lever is one of the few really fundamental inventions of pre-history. The balance.
