"The Ten Commandments contain 297 words.
The Bill of Rights is stated in 463 words.
Lincoln's Gettysburg Address contains 266 words.
A recent federal directive to regulate the price of cabbage contains 26,911
words." -- Atlanta Journal

-------------------

Pretty much the same everywhere now but it made me giggle.
