Gymnasium 1306 is the School of Young Politicians, founded in Moscow in 2001. The mission of the Gymnasium is to educate citizens of the World, true patriots upholding the universal human values, demonstrating responsibility for their country and humankind, committed to serving their nation through active involvement in politics. A breeding ground for new world order leaders if you ask UM members :D

He doesn't sound very fair to me ....... oh wait! does that mean 'fair-haired' or 'handsome'? :blush:

Okay: 1309 *sighs* it's beginning to feel as if we're going backwards with this. We'll all be dead before we reach the halfway mark! I know, I know, I don't contribute much :blush:

NGC1309 is a SPIRAL GALAXY located approximately 120 million light-years away in the constellation ERIDANUS. It is about 75,000 light-years across.

To be honest, as soon as people/astronomers start spouting such impossibly large numbers, I stop believing them. My credulity shrinks in direct proportion to the increase in size of the numbers. PLUS: how can something physical be measured in units of time?

If, at a whopping 25 posts a day, it would take over 109-years to achieve this from the current count.

(1,000,000-1319 post = 998,681 remaining.)

I'm fairly certain of 2 things. One, you will not get 25 posts per day, maybe one, three or ten, bringing that up to well over 200-500 years to achieve this.

Secondly, you will not be alive to bask in the result. And, the world as we know it may well be much changed.

10,000 - 100,000 would have been more realistic.

Just call me "party pooper"
