    L -- the number of posted questions in a certain corner?



    [ Go ahead and delete my answer if needed. It was the first thing that came to my mind as I smiled reading your choices. I meant my answer all in fun.  :)    ]

    Of the choices provided, the best answer would be B. 

    At most, the stars visible in the night sky under perfect conditions would count in the thousands; Atoms in a grams of Einsteinium would be in the millions; a million grains of sand weighs less than 30 lbs.

    I had a sudden urge to go outside and look at the night sky, reading your answer. :)
    And I did.

    It's a cloudy, overcast night -  my favorite kind of night weather. Couldn't see a single star but still beautiful. :)

    There are 70 trillion billion atoms in a gram of E-99...approximately 1/3 of the number of shoes that NJ owns.

    While that number is mind-boggling indeed, I still gotta go with the sand. ;)

    Hah!  Speaking of 'stoners in Oregon' ------------------ I have a cousin who was a very stern loan officer at a local bank for 40+ years. He retired a few years ago and moved his family out to Oregon to 'live off the grid'.  I haven't heard anything about him since.
