    - i know, but he can't talk when he has the nose mask on.... - Danedukenuuk Aug 28, 11:04 2
      - yeah , true, he slept really good with it on last night., maybe now he will stop waking up every two hours. -- nm - Stacy Aug 28, 11:06 1
        
        he should...he'll be (when it works as supposed) a new man full of enegy and stuff :) - Danedukenuuk Aug 28, 11:09

- Heh. We *just* got an employment verification faxed back to us. - Spawn Aug 28, 11:02
- "Well, he's here alot but actual *work*....some, not alot" -- nm - oblique Aug 28, 11:01

Guy, I give up on my part of the bacteria question, the only thing I've found out is how unreliable wikipedia is (once again) - crash davis Aug 28, 10:58 13
- the TED talk linked below lays this out very well. - Guy Aug 28, 11:02 10
  - i think it really depends as well as to what you consider a human cell - Guy Aug 28, 11:09
  - so what is the total volume of 0.6 cubic micrometers times 100 trillion? - crash davis Aug 28, 11:05 8
    - 6 trillion cubic micrometres. -- nm - mafic Aug 28, 11:06 7
      - I could do that, now convert it to something I can understand :P -- nm - crash davis Aug 28, 11:07 3
        
        0.00211888 cubic feet -- nm - Ender Aug 28, 11:12
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        gracias to you and ender both -- nm - crash davis Aug 28, 11:25
      - (60, sorry). -- nm - mafic Aug 28, 11:06 2
        
        which means that the size is probably a vast underestimation, since that's .06 litres. -- nm - mafic Aug 28, 11:12 1
        
        thats a large enough size of bacteria to skeeve me out -- nm - crash davis Aug 28, 11:25
- they don't necessarily conflict if you count all the bacteria in the total cell. 110 trillion is approximately 100 trillion. - mafic Aug 28, 11:02
- i doubt there is a consensus on how many cells ther actually is in a human body - Danedukenuuk Aug 28, 11:01

    - use the luck - Danedukenuuk Aug 28, 10:58 4
      - At what point does it become possible to spend enough money to guarantee you win? If it's 1 in 65M, can't you just spend 65M to win 333? -- nm - oblique Aug 28, 11:02 3
        
        doesn't that involve buying 65 million tickets? it becomes a matter of whether it's possible to do such a thing. -- nm - Andie Aug 28, 11:03 2
        
        I think the hard part would be keying in all the numbers and keeping track and verifying you actually bought every combination - oblique Aug 28, 11:04 1
        
        of course, you lose money if someone else also has the same numbers and splits the jackpot -- nm - zork Aug 28, 11:16
