Awesome statement, it just captures and states the point better than any other phrase possibly could express it. And it's cool!

I almost went with represent the volume of the universe in terms of. I don't think this is quite so neat but it is even more mind boggling.


As for asking questions, Thomas's variation of approach 2 is my favourite: I've tried, I've got something is there a better way? Being less confrontational can often avoid the need for thick skin.

Actually, you can't calculate the volume of the universe. It has no volume as it is flat
