BEER
Germany

[what is this?]
Beer is believed to be over 10,000 years old. Although no one knows its exact origins, some agricultural historians believe that the first beer may have been produced accidentally when a stash of grain was soaked by rain and then warmed by the sun. If this mixture were spontaneously fermented by wild, airborne yeast—which thrives in just these warm, moist conditions—beer would have been produced (Encarta).

Fermented beverages have been preferred over water throughout the ages: they are safer, provide psychotropic effects, and are more nutritious. Some have even said alcohol was the primary agent for the development of Western civilization, since more healthy individuals (even if inebriated much of the time) lived longer and had greater reproductive success. (Upenn Museum)

May-28-05  TheSlid: <1852 meters in a mile!> 1609.

Interesting link, BTW, <Sneaky>. What on earth is it?

May-28-05  hintza: <6 28 496 8128 33550336 8589869056 137438691328 2305843008139952128 2658455991569831744654692615953842176> Wow, that was...err...perfect! ;-)

<<1852 meters in a mile!> 1609.> Both are right actually. 1609 metres is approximately a mile on land (it is actually 1760 yards) , but a nautical mile is exactly 1852 metres, which is used at sea and in aviation. End of lecture.

May-28-05  catfriend: <TheSlid> I meant sea-mile, obviously.

<acirce> nice one!

May-28-05  TheSlid: <catfreind> Ah - I obviously do too much running and not enough sailing. My mistake : )
May-28-05  catfriend: <Hintza> Thanks for the support:) Land-mile is 1609.344, while sea-mile is approximately 1852.5

May-28-05  hintza: <catfriend> Trust me, yards are the way to go!
May-28-05  catfriend: <hintza> lol I prefer the nice m.k.s system!

<TheSlid> and apparently not enough spelling practice, as you misspelled my nick! ;)

May-28-05  TheSlid: Sorry <catfriend> - I got kicked off <JayM>'s spelling team last week. Never have got the hang of "i before e, except after c" and rely heavily on the spellchecker.
May-28-05  catfriend: It's ok, i and e get me confused as well, from time to time:)
May-28-05  hintza: At least you've mastered the apostrophe.
May-28-05  aw1988: I don't see the use of apostrophes, and I won't use them. If people can't communicate without using them, then sorry, we aren't gonna survive.
May-28-05  TheSlid: <aw1988> May I quote this excellent example of apostrophe use? Also, may I say the interpolation of the contemporary contraction "gonna" is sublime and rightly apostrophe free.
May-28-05  aw1988: Yes. :)
May-28-05  Calchexas: Hah. I can DESTROY all of y'all for huge prime numbers:

*Celebrates 4455*2^100682+1st post.*

*plugs number that he discovered.*

May-28-05  fenno: The series of reciprocals of prime numbers that are palindromic in binary number form is convergent and the sum is 0.815710...

Isn't that great?

May-28-05  aw1988: Oh, enough of this. This is the drinking page, not the math page! Cheers, fellow math freaks.

142857 x 3 = 428571
142857 x 2 = 285714
142857 x 6 = 857142
142857 x 4 = 571428
142857 x 5 = 714285
142857 x 1 = 142857

May-28-05  aw1988: Don't forget 142857 x 0 = 0

  tamar: The color of the beer is offensive to me as a non-drinker. Could you photo-shop it to a cola or 7-up hue? :-)
May-28-05  aw1988: Lol. While you're at it, add ice cubes.
