: I just calculated - correct me if I'm wrong - that there's just 52 595 730 : 000 minutes in : 100 000 years (counting the leap days). Even with the "American" : trillions the frequency of these simulations would be ridiculous in that : time span. The Forerunners must have began the simulations way before : the rings were first fired. Of course, we don't know (or do we?) how long : the Guilty Spark's years are, so my calculations might be completely : useless :) http://halostory.bungie.org/news.html?newsitem=771 Jamaican Jim's analysis from lo, these many years ago seems sound to me. -- Steve was impressed with it back then, and it stuck in his brain. Well, stuck enough to get him to search the forum archives for "trillion" to find it again anyway.
