The Numbers We Use

We are all familiar with the numbers that we use on a daily basis. I'd like to be more familiar with a few higher ones, but that's beside the point of this blog post. I had never really thought about this until a couple of days ago when my dad sent me an email containing a power point presentation. It's a little odd that I had never before thought to think about this subject, because this is exactly the type of thing that I can waste many fruitless hours wondering about. In a way I'm lucky, the answer to this mystery was presented to me before I had even wondered about it in the first place.

Forgive me if you have seen this already, it has probably made a few rounds on the internet by now
