Subject: Re: pinhole number of protons on earth

Paul's estimate of number of protons on earth reminds
me of a chem teacher who once told me that a mole of
atoms is about the same number as the grains of sand
on all the beaches of California. When I asked how he
knew the number of sand grains on California beaches
he told me that "Grad students counted them."

With firm handshake,
Raleigh
