I asked you to ballpark it. You refused.

I have ballparked it.


Actually, my number: 6,000 - 4.5 billion is a ballpark, albeit a rather large one.

Your answer however, "more than seven significant digits", is not a ballpark at all. It's not even a large range of numbers. It's a non-answer. That sir, will get you a flunking grade.

The earth is "at least ten million" years old is not a "large range of numbers?" Ten million to infinity is not a large range?

It's a non-answer.

You are projecting. You refuse to exclude the young-earth stuff. Six thousand to 4.5 million excludes nothing.

That sir, will get you a flunking grade.

I am not in your classroom and you are in no position to grade me.
