What is the difference between a mile and a mile squared?
They are both one mile long.

Please tell me you aren't THAT stupid!

Let's use 3 miles. What is 32? 9
Curve Drop= 8"(9) = 72" = 6'

Three miles, not squared, is still just 3 miles.

He’s not talking about a square mile. It’s 8” * miles * miles.

The example was 3 miles. 8” * 3 miles * 3 miles = 72”. Or 6 feet.
