2000 lbs. are in a ton 2204 lbs. are in a tonne (metric ton)
a metric ton is metric because it is 1000 kilo grams. Kilo means 1000 ......so a tonne is a million grams.(1000x1000) a thousand grams in a kilo and a thousand kilos in a tonne. so 5 grams per tonne is 5 parts per million. (someone needs to wake simon, he needs to read this.)
Hope this helps.
As to your other question about different share counts in different places being because they are not being updated, that is usually the cause for the different numbers on different sites. That is why calling the transfer agent is supposed to be the way to get the most current numbers.....it's a real shame when one can't find out the real numbers though.....
