Fun With One-Cent Pieces
« on: January 06, 2013, 09:59:20 PM »
When your bored, check this out!


One quadrillion, sixty-seven billion, eighty-eight million,
three hundred and eighty-four thousand Pennies
[ One cube measuring 2,730 x 2,730 x 2,730 feet ]

title altered by franksolich, who did a double-take at the original title, thinking it read something else; sorry for the inconvenience, and carry on.....
