    Ok, now calculate the energy required to type that reply, nerd.

    But seriously, fair point. I don’t know physics.

      Mgh=50149.81=6867 joules

      So about the same eneegy it takes to keep a 6 watt lightbulb on for 19 minutes

      Edit: oops i see you meant reply, thats a tough one that i cant really answer on the toilet. But using the formula work= F*D and some simplifying assumptions you could do it yourself

      (Work is the physics term for energy needed)
