A Morning Math Problem

3,000,000 divided by 10,000. What does that equal? Depends on who you ask.

Fidget: 3,000. No, wait. 30,000.

Mumbles: 800. Which you get by dividing fucking (indiscernible) by (indiscernible).

Madd Dogg: I can't figure out how to work my cell phone calculator, and I can't do math without a calculator.

Rider X: 300.

300 is, of course, the right answer. But X only knew that because she figured out how to use her cell phone calculator.

Just to make sure that we're not the only math-challenged people, I asked a co-worker. Here was his answer:

3,000. No, 30,000. No no, it's 300,000.

His answers made me feel better somehow.

Hi SFZers, its ZENTRA, speaking to you in a ethereal, echoey voice via the interwebs. I will be there, by your side, on I-5 as long as we still have time to share the road. I want you to know that I have been watching and reading, and I am considering all you say, and I am aware of your lane choices and relative speed.
