Off Topic
So, the current record for longest thread ever in the Logos forums stands at 624 posts.
The thread that holds second place is rapidly closing in for the title and leads the third longest thread by a country mile. (Seriously: Meet and Greet (plus sale) is out of this world!)
We thought it'd be fun to see if we could try to break the current record of 624 posts 674 posts...even though we're now in the final half of Forum Week.
So, here's the plan: post anything you want right in this thread....it doesn't matter how off-topic or, for the benefit of certain unnamed pup...er...people, useless the comment is.
Only two caveats:
- Everything posted must be characterized by love,
courtesy, respect, and kindness. - Though the Logos forums are, overall, community-moderated, Logos reserves the right in this case to lock or delete this thread (or portions of it) if it gets out of hand. Please keep it fun and positive for everyone.
There you go. Nothing more to it. Have fun!

The Beauty of Mathematics and the Love of God! This is TOO cool!
Just the math part is good enough, the end is even better.I bet you will NOT be able to read it without sending it on to at least one other person!
Beauty of Mathematics!!!!!!!
1 x 8 + 1= 9
12 x 8 + 2= 98
123 x 8 + 3= 987
1234 x 8 + 4= 9876
12345 x 8 + 5= 98765
123456 x 8 + 6= 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7= 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8= 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9= 987654321
1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111
9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888
Brilliant, isn't it?
And look at this symmetry:
1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321
Mind Boggling...
Now, take a look at this...
101%
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they
are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100%...
How about ACHIEVING 101%?
What equals 100%in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help
answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
Then:
H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
And:
K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%
But:
A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E
1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%
THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!
If you find this interesting share it with your friends
& loved ones.Have a nice day & God bless you

Yep, that was the thread with 673 (not just 624) posts which would be actually be the longest. The math post was in that thread.

I would like to response Stephen. But Philip won't let me. He's Dogone jealous of my post count.

It is? Take a look at this one:
Yes, that's 159,628 answers on 7,982 pages, and viewed 2,553,628 times. It's from the Swedish MacWorld forum.
The same forum actually has a thread called "The World's Longest Thread" (except in Swedish), but that's only got 27,767 answers, so it's got a bit left to live up to it's name... There's also a 34.730 answers thread in between, and maybe some others as well. So I'm afraid Logos is more than a little behind. [:P]

hopefully you didn't answer the "where you call home" question with too much specificity....or this could be a pretty dangerous statement. [:O]
(Guessing this is also another reason why you prefer to only use Facebook lightly?)

Wait a minute fgh. If we could get every forum member here to post once to this thread, we could cause a server implosion.

Looks like this is the "let's give everyone an excuse to catch up to Rosie's post count" thread. [:)] I might stay out of it to give you all a chance...

You know, I think the trouble is that, well, I once heard that when the Australians, or was it the Austrians (I always get those mixed up) -- anyway, before the invention of the thing with the circle and the holes, you know, that guy who always did the stuff and then got a patent for it -- when that one man was president; you know the one I mean; have you ever thought that it was all just a bit ahead of his time, but it couldn't be the aliens, or could it; there were some sightings over Mexico City, not that he was ever near Mexico City, like Cortez, though it was much smaller then, and not nearly as polluted, you know about the ozone problem in the Antarctic right (and how did the ancient people ever figure out that coast line anyway?), what was that problem with the UV rays, or microwave ovens (I always get those mixed up), which is why the ocean currents have made a big trash problem right in the middle, which is hurting the sea birds, who are eating too many sea turtles, because there just aren't as many of them as their used to be, thanks to the oil spill in Alaska, which is always too cold, except when it's warmer than here, and that's what I think.
What's your opinion?
And um, have you seen my ritalin?
