I considered that, but is it even open most of the year?

Eiffel Tower?

54 million a year - that's about 150,000 per day. If it's open 15 hours per day, that's 10,000 per hour, or 2-3 every second.

Could something like the Eiffel Tower / Louvre / Vatican even handle that kind of crush?

It's gonna be a bathroom at the great wall or some shit.

Could it be the Great Wall? Do millions of Chinese people commute through it every day?

Or a train or subway station?

I'll guess Shinjuku in Tokyo.

Any of the DMV locations in NJ if Facebook rants are believed.

It's not a landmark in the traditional sense. It's also something you'd physically go inside so just seeing it would be pointless (still not anyone's mom, though). Not transportation related either.

I'll guess Shinjuku in Tokyo.

The population of Tokyo's prefecture is "only" 14 million; metro area is 37 million.

But people are presumably allowed to go more than once, right?

Yeah, plus I got the "per day" and "per year" numbers mixed up in my head. So never mind.

Yep. I had never seen that one before until recently.

Huh. Heard a bit about both his mom and uncle recently, and they shared his last name as we know it.

I thought that too

mister d · Post by **mister d** » Tue Nov 03, 2020 3:00 pm

His mom is the one who changed their names. I think Crooks was his dad, his mom was something else and then she converted when he was still a kid.

Makes sense. Still, kinda crazy that I was listening to a podcast yesterday where the guest mentioned his uncle (who also had the changed name).

Gunpowder · Post by **Gunpowder** » Tue Nov 03, 2020 9:19 pm

With that name he probably would have been an NFL running back if it weren't changed.

I’ve never heard it pronounced. Le-shane or Le-sayn?
