Subject: WAY off topic -- Mass of the Universe {Not a word about big-O in here!}

FIRST, I promise not to talk about big-O any more (at least on the board).  I
don't want to transform the place from the CCC board into the CCC 'bored'
;-)

Here are two different estimates, which differ by a factor of 4 million:

http://www.rostra.dk/louis/styr.html?nf=quant_11.html&titel=The%20Extension,%20Age%20and%20Mass%20of%20the%20Universe&fra=http://www.google.com/search?q=%22mass+of+the+universe%22&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&start=10&sa=N
1.6x10^60 kg

http://www.journaloftheoretics.com/Articles/3-2/max-final.htm
7x10^53 kg

Probably the differences are realted to esimates of how much dark matter there
is.

Taking the high figure, in grams it is 1.6x10^63g
That would give 1.6x10^63 * 6.023x10^23 = 9.6368e86 elementary particles.
