    C.   it makes math easier when doing calculations. C=1. Either trust me on this or ask for calculations ...sorta complex.

    The person to whom I posed one of my challenge questions that had c (speed of light) as one if its answers didn’t really like my challenge all that much. 


    I think I’ll post another completely evil challenge question.

    I get two results.

    The first one is:
    LED Direct
    2930 Terrace Street
    Kansas City MO 64108

    The second one is in Claremore, Oklahoma.

    The second one shows an empty lot between a couple of houses.  Since they’re residential, I won’t post the address.  It looks like one of the houses has a trampoline right next to an algae-filled above-ground pool.  That looks fun.  I dare you, lol.

    AH HA!  Just as I expected.  The video I watched placed the location as the Pyramid in Egypt, then they went into this long discourse of gobblygook, which at the time seemed remotely possible.  Thank you for looking it up.

    I never got the Great Pyramids of Egypt.  When I typed 299 792 458 m / s into the search, I just got six different residential streets.
