Re: Piling the skulls (none / 0)
A pyramid is ah/3, and if you don't want your pyramid to fall over because it is too steep, h should be s/2. So for a square-based pyramid, your equation is v = s^3 / 6, and h = 21.4 metres.

Oh my god what a stupid calculation I made. But I did warn you.

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.

Ok, we are looking for a 13100 cubic metres pyramid. The Louvre Pyramid is 8412 cubic metres.

Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.
