At the current rate of sediment accumulation in lake Erie, it would accumulate enough fine grained material to fill its volume in less than 70,000 years.
This assumes a lot i.e that we wouldnt dredge material, that something else doesnt wipe them out first etc.
Until they become the Alright Lakes.
This is askscience. We need a standardized scale for this.
Great should obviosly be near the top. But is Ok above or below Alright?
Point taken. I’d suggest something along the lines of this scale:
great > good > alright > ok > adequate > meh > fair > subpar > unfortunate > abysmal
feeble < poor < typical < good < excellent < remarkable < incredible < amazing < monstrous < unearthly
…based upon how my elementary school teachers used to grade assignments, great is just above excellent, so they’ll diminish to excellent lakes first, then good lakes, then typical lakes…
42
Seconds? Years? Decades? Meters? AU?
Care to give a unit?
It’s a joke. It’s a reference to Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy where the answer to the ultimate question is 42. It’s designed to not make sense.
Yep. Which is why I said time and distance units.
Well woosh on me.
The unit is 42
Oh, the unit is the universe.
And the number too, much more efficient
So you mean like if the ocean dissapears?
