Math for fun and prophet

As of today, my gmail account tells me that I have used up 2 MB of my allotted 1000 MB. I wish there was a way to make it give me a more accurate number, but I will work with what I have.

At this rate, I am using approximately 6.352173913 MB per year (1 year = 365.25 days)

At this rate, I will reach my 1000 MB capacity in 157.4264203 years, on Jan. 20, 2161. I will be 178.4394251 years old.

It is a little strange to think that in my life, I will never get enough (non-spam) email to fill up my inbox.

On the other hand, MEEJ PUT SOMETHING IN MY INBOX TODAY. I love when things appear in my inbox -- last week I went a whole week where a drabble, ficlet, or story post appeared in my inbox EVERY DAY (except for Tannie's birthday which is an acceptable divertion of the Good Fortune). I would love it if that sort of thing started happening more often.

IT WOULD KEEP ME FROM DOING THINGS LIKE modifying my Excel spreadsheet to add outer corridors to account for Gmail's rounding to the nearest whole MB.

INSIDE CORRIDOR: I am actually using about 1.500001 MB at this point -- at this rate, I will reach 1000MB in 210.11 years, at my age 232.

OUTSIDE CORRIDOR: I am actually using about 2.499999 MB at this point -- at this rate, I will reach 1000 MB in 126.19 years, at my age 148.

Just thought you'd like to know. (what a big nerd I am)
