Damn, wrong on all three counts. Guess numerology really is a bunch of woo.
Adding up the errors to a total of 670.2 and dividing through the sum of the 3 numbers gives us a percentage error of .06%.
Not bad for someone living 2000 years ago!
Tell me, did the ancient Greeks calculate measurements with a modern mile of 5280 feet or is this some modern asshats interpretation of numerological woo?
