Rise and Fall of the Third Reich

4000 pages per month… sure…
It’s ~130 pages by days, dependint on what he read, what he count (does he count school reading?) and how old he is, this is not necessarly false or exagerated.
Maybe reading is’nt “cool”, but it’s good to know some are reading other thing than the TV guide.

Who said reading isn’t cool? The ability to read is probably the greatest gift of all. But if you couldn’t read, you probably couldn’t understand this message… :-?
But 4000 pages a month… sorry but I have a hard time in believing. And I don’t mean reading this post, the TV guide, or a school textbook, but pure reading.
-
wow reading the school textbook lol i havnt done that since 6th grade lol
-
TG, i spent about 2 hours on a train each day… and even i read an english book i get up to 100+ pages easily. Doesn’t count for weekends, of course…
Heya Fin, good to see you again !

TV guide . . . now there’s something i haven’t read in a while. Looks like i have some catching up to do.

Especially that you have to read starting from issue #1 to understand the storyline :D ;)

Sure you do? :roll: Must be an easy read…
-
200 Pages in 2 hours isn’t unbelievable. If I’m into a book, I can read 400 pages in 3 hours.

@TG:
4000 pages per month… sure… :roll:
its just 133.3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333……etc. a day. 2 hours reading

133 pages in two-hours? What books were you’re reading?

ha ha ! You see, that’s why i hate our sytem on base 10, in a base 12 system, 133.3333333333333 (inf) would be B1.4 (were B is the number for XI (11)). Far more simple…
hmmmm… i’m completely out of reality here no ?
-
well, 133 1/3 is not so unreasonable . . . .

Just try to get a new babylonian empire up and running, and you’d be happier there, Fin :)
And your mathematician… what do you care about reality ;) ;)? -
I made a base 7 number system

Sure… their base 60 system was inventive
your mathematician… what do you care about reality ?
I care just enough so I or my girlfriend does’nt end like Cantor.
I made a base 7 number system
Base 7 !?!?! Sorry to say that but that is probably the worst base i’ve heard of… In a base 7, it would be very hard to divide, all fraction are problematic. Sure normal number are “ok”, 22 in base 10 is 32 in base 7; so no advantage, no disadvantage. But it’s a prime number, all division are problematic.
0,1 in base 7 = 0,142857… in base 10
0,2 … = 0,2857…
0,3 … = 0,4285…
0,4 … = 0,5714…Very… useless numbers.
Try to find 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5 in a base 7 system; it’s never simple, why using that kind of base ?
If i like basis like 12 or 60, it’s that you can easily put in fraction 1:3, 1:2 and 1:4, and these are the 3 most common division. Even if i know we are not going to change our base, 10 seem to be naturel, as we have 10 fingers probably.

I did it for school her is the history I made up-
The history of A.M.N.S.
A.M.N.S. (Advanced Moon Number System) was invented by the moon colonies (in 2654AD) as they wanted to separate from the earth. One of the many ways they did this was to invent a different and more efficient number system than the old and outdated earth system. To make the system more efficient they eliminated zero so they would not have to write it repeatedly as in the earth system, and they made most of the symbols curved. The system is based on seven because they have seven fingers. This is the result of gravity - as it is less, the moon inhabitants grew bigger and so did their fingers making them extremely clumsy. To combat this, the moon inhabitants genetically engineered all newborns so they would have seven fingers making them the equal size of the earthlings’ fingers.
Timeline
1. Separation of moon colonies, 2643
2. First ideas about different number system, 2652
3. Starting work on A.M.N.S., 2653
4. The number system is officially done, 2654that is why it is base seven

0,1 in base 7 = 0,142857… in base 10
Very… useless numbers.
Except that Pi is roughly 3.1 then… :D
-
Then why not using a base pi ? (Using an unreal number as a basis make all real number seem like unreal)
Anyway, about the 7 fingers, 14 could be a logical choice, on earth some people use a base 20 system (some celtic people if i remember right).
-
well it makes a good story
-
Psstt… base 2 number system (0 and 1) is the only way to go. :P
Stupid humans…
