700 Mb is 700*10^6=700,000,000 bits. MB is 10^6 bytes. MiB is 2^20
bytes. 80 min CD's labeled 700 MB are mislabeled and actually hold 700
MiB, 734,003,200 bytes.

". . . we live in an age of paper religion. We believe more in issuing
paper pronouncements on all subjects than in living our faith. The paper
pronouncements of America's once Christian establishment are not many.
Hence, it is assumed that the United States was never Christian."

        Illusion", by John W. Whitehead, 1977, ISBN 0-915134-41-1
