    Edit: Actually I don't think this place was mentioned in the books was it?

    14 avoirdupois pounds (generally considered) times 3, dense in both deed and now, in fact.

    Pulling most of this from memory but...

    This should be fun...

    Those individuals who are considered to be without proper grasp of the combination of circumstances which are now presented to the group as a whole, would do well to consider a complete evacuation of immediate surroundings and do so with all possible haste.

    I think Rengaru should give it a try.

    Come on Rengaru! If you are quick enough to come up with the correct answer (that was a particularly tricky one) then you are quick enough to give us some confusion.

    Please?
