1. To be sure it was hundreds -- like maybe 32 hundreds.
Or like 160-some scores.

3. In all fairness,
fewer than twoscore hundred. Doesn't seem like that many.

4. I've combined classes;
With statistics and biology. There are some really neat estimating software packages out there now. For example, the estimation of bacteria colonies in a petrie dish comes very close to actual count. For those trolls out there; don't even start, just realize you are stupid.

5. Yep, the media lies.
We all know it and look at the facts and laugh at all the idiots that believe everything they are told.

There are a great number of very stupid, gullible people in the world, and they are fair game for the smart ones that can actually think clearly.
