Very cool! An updated version of Charles and Ray Eames classic "Powers of Ten" .

Bad Stella. Hypnotizing the Aspies.

A Yoctometer? That's one on me. It sounds like a device to measure the effectiveness of a joke on an audience.

I'd never heard of that either.

here's the wikipedia page-- but it's all Greek to me

My penis is 16.5 million yocto-light years in length when fully erect. It comes up more often than you'd think.

Ack! That burning odor you smell is my brain overheating trying to comprehend that information...all those zeroes remind me of my bank account...who figures all this stuff out anyway...the King of the Geeks?

...all those zeroes remind me of my bank account...

Lots of zeroes in a bank account is a good thing. Who are you . . . Bill Gates?

Not if there isn't another number in front of them zeroes it ain't.

That was very cool. Thanks, Stella.

Wow!!

An erect penis measured in light years!! Kind of makes the rest of us male Litsters a bit humbled.

Wait a minute...

You can buy one just like it at Babes In Toyland and The Pleasure Chest...

Not that I'm in the market...but for educational purposes only, I checked out The Pleasure Chest.

I saw dildos measured in inches, but none measured in yocto-light years.

This model comes in (sigh) a six inch and an eight inch version. What would that be in yocto-light years?

If I'm not mistaken, Stephen, the 6-inch one would be approximately

2.235798688 x 10 (-6) yocto-light years.

I think you're mistaken.

I get six inches to be about 15.24 million yocto-light years.

Could be; never did quite adjust to the metrification of Canadian weights and measures. I'll try again starting with the Imperial. (By the way, you did use the Julian Year, didn't you?)

We aren't that far apart, anyway; mine comes out to 2,235,798.688 yocto light years, and that's not even an order of magnitude, let alone a 32nd of an inch.

I think mynameisben got it right.

1 yocto-lightyear (yLy) = 1E-24 x 9.5E+15 meter = 9.5E-09 meter.

6 inches = 152.4 mm = 0.1524 meter = 0.1524 / 9.5E-09 = 16E+06 yLy.

6 inches = 16 million yocto-lightyears.

It seems mynameisben has half-a-million yLy over Doc Johnson.

I stand erected. (Sorry, I mean, corrected).

Well, every little half a million yocto-light years counts...

Perhaps you went astray in converting furlongs to femtometers. And of course I used the Julian calender. When you've only got as many million yocto-light years as I have, every little bit helps.

 

[Dual_Triode]

Yocto-lightyears are, of course, the units that Buzz Lightyear uses to describe the length of his "utility belt".

"To infinity... and beyond!"

Of course! I erred in my conversion of rods to decameters, and that threw off the femtometers! Thanks, Doc, I appreciate that.

Buzz Lightyear has since found this to be true only for 6SN7 and 6SJ7 configurations and that it is irrespective of time.

That would be one "hot" utility belt!
