I have to break my self imposed exile for this.

On a possibly related subject, it would take 4.2 X 10 ^ 807,000 monkeys and typewriters to write War and Peace in a single attempt. This is a kindda big number.

By my best calculation building the pyramids was just about 4.2 X 10 ^ 807,000 times more difficult than writing War and Peace.

I wonder how many people it would take to make a granite box with smooth sides by accident.
