...5000 days before my birthday.

Thanks to Wolfram Alpha. Was just testing some maths related stuff and stumbled over it. :D

I am sure there is a culture or a religion somewhere according to its theories you are RvW's reincarnation.
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

Ooh, ohh! No reincarnation  :-[ Just realized Wolfram detects where I'm from and therefore interpreted my input "04/05/1972" as May, 4th. But I'm from Apr. 5th, so move along, nothing to see here.
However the Wolfram Mathematica Web frontend thingy is fun, just look at the http://www.wolframalpha.com/examples/

For instance, did you know that 42^42 is 150 unvigintillion, 130 vigintillion, 937 novemdecillion, 545 octodecillion, 296 septendecillion, 572 sexdecillion, 356 quindecillion, 771 quattuordecillion, 972 tredecillion, 164 duodecillion, 254 undecillion, 457 decillion, 814 nonillion, 47 octillion, 970 septillion, 568 sextillion, 738 quintillion, 777 quadrillion, 235 trillion, 893 billion, 533 million, 16 thousand and 64?

Very important ;) -> In 3 days it's Sibelius 18888 (days) anniversary of death.

But still, the answer is 42.

I do not believe I have used unvigintillion even once in my life. But I will use it in a sentence within the next week so I will remember the word, not to mention showing off a bit:

"The chances of this actually happening in reality is less than one unvigintillion to one!"
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

I aim to have 150 unvigintillion cd's before a Vaughan Williams Bi-Centenary, but I too will be dead by then, but I expect to keep collecting as soon as that happens anyway.
