What does this MEAN? I disapprove of so-called "CUTE" Interweb acronyms like "LOL" and "YHGMTPOAFW". Please write in language we ALL can UNDERSTAND!

-How do I go about measuring the interior volume of my piggy bank?

1. Get a SOLID RUBBER CORK.
2. PLUG all OPENINGS in the PIGGY-BANK with the CORK to prevent AIR from ESCAPING. Weigh the PIG, CORK, and AIR.
3. SUCK ALL AIR out of the PIGGY-BANK and use the CORK to keep the AIR from GETTING BACK IN. Weigh the PIG and CORK.
4. SUBTRACT the weight you got in STEP 3 from that you got in STEP 2. This gives you the weight of the AIR required to FILL the PIGGY-BANK.
5. Using a BAROMETER, find the DENSITY of the AIR. Then use THIS INFORMATION to calculate the VOLUME OF THE AIR found in STEP 4.

I trust you will find this solution COMPLETELY to your SATISFACTION.
