I just played the Spark it up game, which asked "How many mg of enriched Uranium would it take to do all the world's Google searches over 1 hour?" I guessed 1200, and it replied "That's a lot of mg of enriched Uranium. The actual answer is 2040." Now I realise you guys are the scientific and mathematical experts, but I was rather under the impression that 2040 is more than 1200.
