Hebrew numerology (called Gematria is Hebrew) is not a lost art. There is a woman in my synogogue who is quite proficeint in it. Every letter in the Hebrew alphabet also stands for a number. For example when two people are married, it is often the custom to take there Hebrew names, and add up the letters. The sum is converted back to letters. You'd be surprized how often you can come up with other words, often times meaningful to a wedding ceremony.
A more specific example one of the Hebrew names for God, Elohim, when added up equals the same numbers as the word, ha-teva, meaning mother nature.
Elohim -- aleph-lamed-hey-yud-mem:
1 + 30 + 5 + 10 + 40 = 86
Hateva -- hey-tet-bait-ayin:
5 + 9 + 2 + 70 = 86
The Hebrew word for snow, sheleg, add up to (333) the same as forgetfulness, shich'cha. The rabbi's say that when it snows, one is sometimes stuck inside and becomes forgetful of the world outside.
I could go on forever, but you get the idea. Whether this is just coincidence, or not I leave up to you to decide. But, I think that it's a pretty cool thing.

Of course Imperial/Customary measurement is not useful. Just look at this list: http://www.ex.ac.uk/cimt/dictunit/dictunit.htm#US What the hell is a "bushel" or a "pennywight." There is no standard of measurement that makes sense.

Actually, it shows that small states have more power electorally per capita.
This is very true. I had a friend who figured out the exact amount electoral power each state had by dividing it's number of electoral votes by the population. I believe Wyoming came out with the most voting power. The Electoral collage is stupid and outdated. It should be more directly porpotioned to the population.

I'm pretty sure it was a theorhetical question. Obviously a baby could never be born without a brain, it would be an inanimate object, and never have been alive in order to die.

4000 group of women too small?
I apologize. I misread your post. I thought you meant there was 4 women in one group, 7 in another, etc.
But that doesn't mean I think the study is true.

Help!! I'm addicted to the Science Forums network! I should be doing my homework, but instead I surf the message boards. When no one's posting, I surf the web, and keep checking back. Should I get a life, or what!

I have this literature anthology from english class, it's over two thousand pages long, but from the outside it doesn't look like it, because the pages are really thin. My question: What is this paper made out of and how do they get it so thin??
Thank you
