So we'll just have a distributed celebration. Maybe convene a conference
for A131072. This will require a methuselah (although hopefully not a
millennium!)
(More interesting numbers: "Methuselah was an antediluvian patriarch
described in the Old Testament as having lived 969 years and whose name is
synonymous with great age. He may well have evolved from a character of
earlier Sumerian legend who lived for 65,000 years. To the Old Testament
scribes this was perhaps too tall a tale, so they may have cut him back to
a more conservative lifespan." --www.giantbottles.com)
Cheers!
