   imbecile, gravity is a constant, not acceleration. And is times ten to get   
   the wight in newtons, a close approximation. Your ass is pushed up by   
   earth with say, 900 Newtons (err 2%), you not being accelerating. Or you   
   too missundrestood what an acceleration stands for in physics.
