A sticky note was weighed before and after the password written on it was forgotten.

0.0000 g before. 0.0000 g after. The scale is accurate to four decimal places. The note, however, felt noticeably heavier to everyone who held it.

// result

Grief is not a recognized SI unit. We logged it anyway.
