Clever. Yes. Very clever Coaster, but not clever enough. But I've fallen right into my own trap by asking a question. Wait. You've fallen right into my own trap by answering that question. No. That can't be right because your answer would make yours the last post. Unless I responded. Ya. That's it. I'll respond and win the game.

P.S. Thanks ^^^^ Coaster.

^ often means raised to the power of. Like 2^2 would mean two squared or four.

Now a bunch of ^'s in series would mean the exponentiation is done iteratively much like eponintiation is iterative multiplication and multiplication is iterative addition and addition is iterative counting.

For Example 2^^2 would be two squared squares or 2^4 or 16.

2^^^2 would be 2^32 or 65536 and 2^^^^2 would be a what I like to call a huge fucking number.

You know six years in engineering school did teach me how to provide solutions to problems that had nothing to do witht he problem at hand.

(sigh) If I could only get the training for my liecence and then have the gall to ask for the $50.00/hr rate for my bullshit answer.

Well let me help. I'll hold down the first place while you get the training.

But if I get a job, then I won't be able to post here from work and we can't have that can we? After all, that would mean somoene else would win!

Just because some of the guys, especially me, seem to have turned this game into quite a battle, doesn't mean it must continue so.
Let me just say to all the guys and gals as well, "I love you. Let's stop this silly competion, and move onto more interesting threads. We will all just stop posting, let this thread die, and be much happier Pixie people for it."

I like this thread.

I don't want it to die.

It's surprising how you can feel like you're getting to know a fellow pixie better, just by trying to steal that elusive first place from them.

And I win
