I'd be interested in trying that on my fix too. Do you know if there's any hills that would be killers on a fix?

Measuring in moles will only give you the sum of the molecular weight of each particle according to Avogadro's # and in no way relates to the volume that will be taken up by the particles at a particular pressure and temperature. So if you have equal volumes at room temperature at sea level then water is.... Whatever.
