67.7584%

Wah wah! Oops.
That's how much of the surface is covered in water.
Only one fiftieth of one per cent of the Earth is water.
The Earth's mass of 6 million, billion, billion Kilograms.
Even if you just take the crust, the mass of the land is 40 times greater than the mass of the ocean.

When they sent out one of the early Voyager probes with one of the brass plaques fixed to it covered in digital information of the Earth's size and relationship in terms of the Solar System etc.,someone suggested sending digitized music on some early semi-conductor microchip and someone said "What about Bach ?"
The astronomer and scientist Carl Sagan replied, " I think that would just be showing off."

Morning guys!
I'm very sore after yesterday- always am after the first day back at gym.
Those free cartwheels really do your legs in. And I've got more trampolining today.

Speak later, bye!

 

[spud's_mum]

Whoops, didn't mean to quote your post, sorry!

Sandstorm Gillian, Part II.

Good morning Adam, Wifey and Tidgy. Hope you're all well.

So...Sandstorm Gillian, Part II has begun this morning. What a series it is; with almost everyone 'imprisoned.'

 

[Gillian M]

Well, I am expecting Sandstorm Gillian III soon.

That was my mistake. Please forgive me Boss. It's Sandstorm Gillian III that began this morning.

Regards to Wifey and a BIG kiss to Tigdy from Oli.

Morning, all

 

[Gillian M]

Morning, all

Good morning Ed, good morning Bertha. Hope you are both well.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Sounds like things are better here than there, so I won't complain.
How are You and Oli?

 

[Gillian M]

good night miss gillian and oil, remember to shut the windows and be safe

Good morning John. Hope you are well.

Thanks John, all windows have been shut two days and this is day three. Oli seems to be as bored as I am but we cannot move in such weather.

How are You and Oli?

We are fine, thanks. I began feeding Oli mazuri as soon as I received the wonderful parcel, and I sprinkle a tiny bit of the calcium powder on his food. Very thankful.

We are both rather bored due SANDSTORMS here, and we've been cautioned not to leave home unless necessary. Someone in the forum said torts do NOT get bored. I think they do: they have a brain and a nervous system.

How are you, and how's Bertha doing?
