    Terrible use of English.“80 times smaller”You can’t divide by multiplying. It’s 1/80th the size.

    Figure what angle a star has, an illuminated object stands out. Check out the sparks a grinding wheel gives off – bright spots but try to find the chunk of metal after it cools off.

    As I recall, the area of Disney World extends well beyond the developed area. They wanted Disney World to stand out when it was built, learning from mistakes made with Disney Land:1- First floor of Disney World is service area only, no visitors so workers from one area didn’t have to walk through another thus spoiling the effects.2- To stand out. After Disney Land was built, other commercial interest built right across the street. This doesn’t happen at Disney World because of the buffer area.

    Does that speak well of the eye or the candle flame?

    The candle thing is misleading since it is a light source. Although it is an interesting fact. After all, I can see the star called Deneb. That is something like 2,500 light-years away.

    One-Eightieth As Large, People. That’s almost as bad as “One year anniversary.” (anniversary and year- same thing.)

    I heard Bill was sexually attracted to his Harley, wanted to marry it or some weirdness.
