  "Overall, 1941 was a near-record year of strikes and disputes, with more than 3,500 of them, costing 23M man-days of labor -- enough to build 124 Fletcher-class destroyers." --- Arthur Herman 2012 _Freedom's Forge: How USA Business Produced Victory in World War 2_ pg151 (a fine addition to any library)

  "...chariot races in the 40K-seat hippodrome. Ethnically, they were far from homogeneous, and, each family knew its ancestors. Some were Abasgians, Alans, Zichs, Vandals, Getae, or Chaldoi, tribes whose names mean little to modern minds; others were Hellenes, Assyrians, and Armenians, still familiar ethnicities today. Their skin colors varied, as did their accents, but all orthodox Christians who spoke Greek were considered citizens, even if they spoke a harsher Greek that the palace elite found utterly incomprehensible." --- Jeff Sypeck 2006 _Becoming Charlemagne: Europe, Baghdad, and the Empires of 800CE_ pg42

Except that computer people use 2 as a base raised to multiples of powers of 10, instead of 10 raised to multiples of powers of 3 because powers of 2 are handier for them, but they also want to stay somewhat close to the values of 10 most folks are used to.

  "Before the war, eminent experts had confidently predicted that the coalition would suffer tens of thousands of casualties. Based on computer models of past conflicts, the Pentagon stock-piled 16K body bags. In the event, the coalition lost only 240 soldiers killed in action and 776 wounded out of a total force of 795K. (The USA, with 550K troops in theater, lost 147 killed in action [35, almost 24%, were attributed to friendly fire] and 467 wounded [there were also 235 'non-hostile' deaths from accident, disease, and suicide].) That is a staggeringly low fatality rate of 0.03% -- a tenth of the per capita losses suffered by Israel in the Six Day War of 1967 and a twentieth of the losses suffered by Germany in the invasion of France in 1940, the 2 previous operations that were considered the gold standard of 20th-century military excellence. US air-craft losses, at one-twentieth of 1% [0.05%] of all sorites, were 42% lower than [?68% of?] in VietNam and 95% lower than in World War 2. Statistics sow that American men between the ages of 20 and 30 were actually safer on average fighting in Desert Storm than in staying at home in the USA." --- Max Boot 2006 _War Made New: Technology, Warfare, and the Course of History 1500 to Today_ pp347-348 (citing Meredith Friedman 1998 _The Future of War: Power, Technology and American World Dominance in the 21st Century_ pp253-254; Rick Atkinson 1993 _Crusade: The UnTold Story of the Persian Gulf War_ pg183; Stephen Biddle 2004 _Military Power: Explaining Victory and Defeat in Modern Battle_ pg133; Richard P.
