LMAO!!! :lol:
Americans. :P
If the machine was reading Tonnes, or "British (long) tons" as Einstein here calls it, one would expect the panel should have read "Tonnes". So the artist made the first blunder and the archivist person made another blunder with a dodgy assumption.
The best assumption, to get some some degree of actual logic happening at least, would be if the weight lifeting device was American made and just leave the explanation at 57 "Tons". :P
Quote:Rogue's strength was measured during a workout on Muir Isle in uncanny X-Men #217. The readout (shown enlarged at bottom right) is 57 tons. However, since Muir is in Scotland the machine is probably reading British (long) tons: if so then Rogue is lifting over 63 US (short) tons here.
