That's a coincidence. For last night I was reading Aristophanes' Peace, in which the protagonist rides to heaven on a giant dung beetle. -

"Dung beetle" was adequately amusing.
70 houses to run a car for a year @ 10,000 miles. 70 * 2.2 people per house * 365 (1 deposit daily) = 56,210 poohs. So that's 10,000 / 56,210 = 0.178 miles per pooh. Or 65 miles per person-pooh years.Comment
