I am experiencing what can only be described as a brain stoppage, and thus am having trouble with math. (Not that I don't always have trouble with math

wouldn't that be division? How many times does 600,000 go into 6 billion?

[mik100]

maybe?

.01%

This might qualify as high school math, if it makes you feel any better.

you'd have approx 10 000 people with the mutation, which gives you a percentage of 1.66x10^-6% or 0.00000166% ie VERY DAMN SMALL %

Okay, so clearly I need to change that ratio, as it needs to be at least a few million people. o.O

Also, when are you coming to visit? I've still got a Comic-Con present for you. ^.^

I'm off pretty much all next week... well, Monday through Friday anyhow, and I have my UPass now, so anytime then.

Also, for say, 2 million people out of 6 billion people to have the mutation, it would be about 3.33x10^-4 which is 0.000333% or 1/3000 births. I think I did that right.

I work 8:30am-5pm the rest of this week, and Aimee is off until start of classes next week, I think. So you should come! Whenever.

P.S. How fast do you think you can read 532 pages? *desperate crazy-person face*
