| Jan 29, 2013 at 11:59 | comment | added | Joe Z. | Yeah, it seems too large. Maybe knock off a few -- oh, wait, never mind, it fits with Avogadro's number. | |

So you think it also applies in the case of questioning a probability of "becoming asymmetrically aware of universe", which feels somewhat qualitative question about the universe, and all your examples seems to be quantitative. | |
