Yes. But Ric's answer is just as good I guess, and perhaps a bit faster.

              What if the amount of weight that you put on the front of =
a key to make it go down, is different from the amount of weight that =
you need to put on the back of the key to make it go down? Should the =
keystick need the same amount in both places to be considered balanced??
