"142, to be precise,
Are all the diff'rent ones-it's that concise!"
"Are you trying to tell me," Olga cried,
"For eons, now, they haven't multiplied?
To think the stories in the Universe
Together number fewer than a gross."
"Once man had more story ladders to climb,
But that's a matter for another time.
I have the math to number every birth
Of unique individuals on Earth.
My 'reverse auger,' sees how they acted,
And every atom their deeds impacted."
