Donate Rice to the Hungry.....IT'S FREE

Someone posted this on another forum and I couldn't help but pass it along.


http://www.freerice.com/index.php


One click = 10 grains of free rice. They're just quiz questions, and each answer you get right, you help feed the hungry.

So far, I'm up to 1210 grains of rice.....trying to make it to 2000 at least.


Don't forget about our furry pals either.

One click helps donate food to shelters. This one isn't a quiz.....it's just clicking one button.

I know I maybe late on this.....but better late than never, huh?

ooohh! i wonder too..
how many that will feed...12,110 grains of rice...how much does one grain weigh??
the weight of a grain of rice... hmmm

most single grains of rice weigh 20-30 mg...
so...12110 grains X 25mg(avg)= 302750 mg
and 1000 mg in a gram, 1000 grams in a kilogram
302.75 grams of rice weight?? so not a half a kilogram??

confuse is that right??
cuz if it is... *click*

tease
that's a lotta clicks... eek
1,000,000 mg equals a kilogram
if we say one grain averages 25mg in weight
then it takes 40,000 grains of rice to make a kilogram
so for 10kg...400,000 grains
every click earns ten grains (assuming your answear is correct).... dead
4,000 correct answears...(and if you miss,more)...
a minimum of 4,000 clicks?
did i do it right?? confuse

yeah way more need to do this, since if the average score is only about 500-1000, it's not gonna go very far!
