*ahem* I think you're using the speed of light in kms-1 not ms-1 *ahem*

I wouldn't worry, everone gets units mixed up.

Anyway, I reckon you could power a 100W light bulb for about 1,426,940,639 years. Which, funnily enough, is about the same as the odds of anyone getting the same answer.

I just thought I would point out that to release all that energy into a light bulb, you would have to perform a very slow and difficult nuclear reaction, I think more complicated than humans can currently do.

This has gone on enough...
A little furry Lioness can not hope to end the power problems of the entire earth!
It's up to me!

If he has more mass he could do better [img]smile.gif[/img] more mass = more energy [img]smile.gif[/img]

Errr right now Im not aware that humans can turn themselves into pure energy either [img]smile.gif[/img]
