Default A Few Questions for the Board

I am putting the cards below into the Burke++ family time capsule to be opened in 2116.

1. Will the Cubs win another World Series before the capsule is opened?

2. What will the cards be worth in 2116?

3. Who will bump this thread to the top of the main board in 2116?

4. To which auction house will the cards be consigned by my heirs?

5. How many seeds are there in a pomegranate?

Note: One of these questions can be answered correctly. Start counting.

1. I would say before 2020 is over this comes true.

2. About the same as the going rate in 2116 for a 2 gallons of milk.

3. This is determined by the compatibility of the site to the internal brain wave computers.

4. Sold via trade for the new "World" currency on Ebay Version 20.5.

5. We can kibitz about the 613 myth...

I do not know the answer to any of the questions but would bet money that a pomegranate has even more seeds than a scallop has eyes.

So much of nature's structure matches with the Fibonacci sequence it seems that 610 is the correct answer for seeds. Luckily the Cubs will not have to wait 610 years for their next WS win

The only question I can answer definitively is -

3.) Well, I cannot provide an exact answer but, you can bet your 'whatever' that it won't be anyone related to me.

I am the only one in my family tree that is so connected to and obsessed with the tree bi-product they call cardboard.
