Abstract: Nothing is new In mass measurement. A pound is still a pound. And the simplicity of this statement is why most serious men in the measurement field realize the value of measuring in mass units. Natural gas companies are not selling cubic feet of gas. They are selling energy. That is why the definition of a cubic foot of pure natural gas must state the specific gravity because the heating value will vary almost directly with the specific gravity. Heat energy is proportional to mass rather than volume. Therefore it is logical to measure directly in mass than volumetric units.
