How much does a ghost weigh?

Terrible orthography notwithstanding, this is an excellent example of skeptical thinking at work.

Excerpt:

How much does a ghost weigh? The answer you would get from most people is nothing at all. But if thats true, Ghost cannot have mass or momentum and cannot feel the force of gravity.  And if thats true, theres nothing binding them to the surface of the earth. without gravity to keep them here, any ghost that would appear before you would instantly  dissappear with a somewhat shocked expression at tens of thousands of miles per hour due to the earths rotation and its motion around the sun, not to mention the montion of the suns and planets around our galaxy
