That's going to be a lot of cake.
« on: October 10, 2015, 03:01:23 PM »
I want to wish a happy birthday to the descendants of Genghis Kahn. How do I know that today is your birthday? Because every day is your birthday.


With over 16 million direct descendants living today, every day is the birthday of 43,000 of them.

It doesn't necessarily mean that he did a crazy amount of breeding considering that he lived some 30 generations ago. Exponential growth is a squeak.

Except human population growth rates aren't that simple.

Floob. Is your avatar a gleaming star at a funeral?  I'm not sure if that is pimply, godly, or simply revolting.

However, if you have a pronounced tum and a predilection for little fur hats...

For example, ol' Temujin, by his own actions, led to some very local, very dramatic DE-population events.   ;)

Snail, about that photo of The Duke... did you know that John Wayne's film "The Conqueror" was filmed downwind of a nuclear weapon test site? Many of the cast and crew later died of oddball cancers. See this link.

It's also why the average man that lived at the time of Genghis Khan has only about 400 descendants today.
