Damn, Everest must have been eating its greens of late. Think it's closer to the 29,000 feet mark. Makes me chuckle at the size of some of the AH mountains.

Doesn't change the example much but i'm a mountain dweeb.

If you opt to use a needle to pass the bridle line through the sail, go to step 2. If you choose to use the hole-punch instead, fold the sail along the diagonal again (to fold the tape) and make half a hole in the center of each masking tape square so that when you open up the fold, each square will have one full hole (instead of two holes).

if a chicken and a half in a day and a half can lay an egg and a half, then how many wooden legged monkees does it take to kick the seeds out of a dill pickle?

The Horror !!
They are wasting good seeds there...
But actually, which Monkee are we referring to?
Davy? Or the curly haired ugly drummer dude?
I think Peter would never be seen in public with a wooden leg
So that leaves 1
Any more math questions? Need to wait though, I am running out of string, man this earth with no mountains is still friggin huge.

Earth: Evererst 37000 ft I.E. aprox 7 miles ocean depth about same.
I.E. +- 7 Miles over 8000mile dia. I.E. +- .001 %

Billard ball: 2.5" would equate to .0025 tollarance, not sure what the tollerance is but wouldn't suprise me if it is under .001.

I`m personaly leaning towards 3, but there can be instances where 4 would be closer.
