   Or use Calculator. After opening it, click the hamburger and scroll   
   down to "Weight and mass".   
      
   Or, just type in the number of grams, then append "*16/454" and hit   
   Enter, because 16 ounces is 454 grams.   
      
   Or, enter a Google search like "85 g in oz" (without quotes). Google   
   has all the common conversions built in, since long before AI.

   large number of sites scraping Usenet articles without
