Wikipedia says that at least 2065 different cheeses are in existence
(more than 700 in the UK alone).

The combination of 2065 things taken four at a time is

2065! / (4! * 2061!) = 2065 * 2064 * 2063 * 2062 / 24 = 755,451,166,540

So if you had a different combination as often as clueless AOL newbie
Sheldon "Pussy" Katz picks his butt, you'd finish out the list around
4400 AD.
