Danny:  Thanks again for the other side of the argument.
I never REALIZED the small quantities we were talking about.

I am still not likely to use them again, but the volume(s) ARE pretty small.
As for Bar Mitzvahs, I would STILL never use them,  After all the kids ARE
ALL still given Knives and forks to eat with, therefore they could very
quickly be popped.

(PREVIOUSLY...)---I said---I NEVER ever use water-balloons. Not unless you
want to see the tables
flooded from those pesky kids. As alternatives to sand, I use bags of
decorating rocks >>

--Danny replied (again):
1)	An uninflated 9" balloon holds a little less than 1/4 cup of water
(...)and has enough weight to hold down up to six 11" helium balloons--(six
is pushing it).

2)An uninflated 11" balloon holds a little less than 1/3
of a cup of water and will hold down up to ten 11" helium balloons.
