And besides, a sheet of ice generally features 12 players at a time, not one. But still, Du’s ability to spark a charge—or, better yet, to tip a close game in Harvard’s favor?...
...indexes would be if they were stacked pieces of paper. He quickly comes up with an answer, then keeps crunching numbers in his head as we discuss other issues. Finally, after recalculating his estimate for paper width, he blurts out: "500 miles." I ask Brin whether, as a kid, he used to play with numbers, adding digits, say, in the phone book. "No," he says. "That would be crazy...
