I have yet to hear of Mr Mugabe considering allowing the white farmers to go back to their lands they were evicted from which triggered this crisis.
Maybe our President can discuss it face to face with him at their upcoming summit.

Checking to confirm the definition of a “googol” as “1 followed by 100 zeros” (Wikipedia) I ran across the claim that there are roughly “1 followed by 80 zeros” atoms in the universe.
From there, the trail gets a little murky, and I screwed up the mental arithmetic, mixing up “base 2” and “base 10”.
That number is more like “a trillion trillion times” the number of atoms in the observable universe.

I caught that your numbers were a little off, when this darned AAFES connection was running better earlier. But still, the number surprised me.

Remove Mugambe or nothing will improve. Put him into prison.
To: DuncanWaring
The number of atoms in the visible universe used to be cited as 10^72.
Now its 10^80. Inflation.

Heck, I thought I remembered the number of protons, neutrons and electrons being on the order of 10^60.

6.5 quindecillion novemdecillion percent - 65 followed by 107 zeros.
For those playing at home, that is more than a mole of moles of moles of moles.
1048 * 1060
Or 10 million googols.
Cheers!

And still some people laugh at the idea of owning gold.
