No panties in a bunch, but this just didn't sound right so I looked it up...
A newton is the force necessary t0 accelerate  1Kg a 1m/s^2. Not at
1G. On earth 1Kg weighs about 9.81N.and 1 lb is about 4.4N.

You are right.  It is 9.8 Newtons/Kg.  That's what I get for depending on my 
old memory and a public school education 40+ years ago.
