I used "disillusion" instead of "delusion". How ****ed am I?

<p>Ya great. You have things to do in the next 1337 years :D</p>

<p>You seem to be perfectly unbothered about the fact that six times nine equals forty-two.</p>

<p>Yep… It should be n-> infinity.</p>

<p>P.S.: I think I’m a mathematician as well XD</p>

<p>There is possibility that 1335 years after the event that a big meteor hits the Earth in 2012, a human-like species “finds” that 6 x 9 = 42 :D</p>

<p>True. If the aliens uses base 13 as their computing system.</p>

<p>I kinda doubt that if they use 13 as their number system, can they manage space flight so easy, without the benefit of the almighty “2”?</p>

<p>Wow, I didn’t think that you wouldn’t need 1337 years :smiley:
Now ask kenhungkk to verify that :D</p>

<p>No to the aliens it would be only 7BB years.</p>

<p>Oop, sorry, I’m little human, I didn’t realize that you are… :smiley:
I doubt that your alien has existed for a long time, maybe since your first monkey was born. Oh, so the uncertainty principle does approve time traveling, right? :D</p>

<p>Yes. Perhaps you are my future self who has travelled back in time to the present.</p>

<p>Or in another way, you are my past self who has traveled to the present :smiley: I wonder if that’s correct.
(hey we are going too far and digressing from the topic, don’t you think?)</p>

<p>I have too long digressed, and therefore shall return to my subject. I think the advantages by the proposal which I have made are obvious and many, as well as of the highest importance. For first, as I have already observed, it would greatly lessen the number of Papists, with whom we are yearly over-run, being the principal breeders of the nation, as well as our most dangerous enemies, and who stay at home on purpose with a design to deliver the kingdom to the Pretender, hoping to take their advantage by the absence of so many good Protestants, who have chosen rather to leave their country, than stay at home and pay tithes against their conscience to an episcopal curate.</p>

<p>Secondly, The poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress, and help to pay their landlord’s rent, their corn and cattle being already seized, and money a thing unknown.</p>

<p>Thirdly, Whereas the maintainance of an hundred thousand children, from two years old, and upwards, cannot be computed at less than ten shillings a piece per annum, the nation’s stock will be thereby encreased fifty thousand pounds per annum, besides the profit of a new dish, introduced to the tables of all gentlemen of fortune in the kingdom, who have any refinement in taste. And the money will circulate among our selves, the goods being entirely of our own growth and manufacture.</p>

<p>Fourthly, The constant breeders, besides the gain of eight shillings sterling per annum by the sale of their children, will be rid of the charge of maintaining them after the first year.</p>

<p>I wonder if it is that obvious and many :D</p>

<p>It’s merely a modest proposal.</p>

<p>Correct cgarcia.</p>

<p>I misspelled “competitive” as “competative” and got in. A small mistake will not sink you.</p>

<p>Bah… I hate combo breakers…</p>

<p>Mr. Panda, MAN, you’re wordy.</p>

<p>But then, I was a liberal-arts major.</p>

<p>“Brevity is the soul of wit.” – Shakespeare</p>

<p>^Panda was quoting from a social science paper. Sounds UK-ish, I’d bet either TR Malthus on population or J Swift on economy.</p>

<p>I was speaking generally.</p>
