The AudioPH[i]D Ep. 3 - 2/23/13: In Which a Weight is Lifted This month, we are proud to present a play about the possible theft of one of the world's most precious artifacts: The International Protoype Kilogram, the One True Kilogram against which all other kilograms are measured. What would happen if someone stole the IPK? How would the world go about replacing – or displacing – it? So today, we present a punny romp through the noir: A Gram…to Kil!
