Knowledge

The volume of the sun in cubic cubits (natural or Roman) is ... but wait. Why should I tell you? The reason I figured this out was so I'd know something that no one else in the world knew and, if knowledge is power, why would anyone want to share it?

I used to know the speed of light in furlongs a fortnight, which alliterates nicely (though cubic cubits isn't bad), but someone told me they saw that printed in a book once, so I had to find something else to know.

Joy,
Jan

PS: BTW, something is wrong with the front page, and it is all stretched out. Maybe it is just some setting on my 'puter that got messed up, but I thought I'd tell someone. :)
