If this is not enough, now please look at the number of times the following words occur:

• ‘Month’: 12 times

• ‘Day’: 365 times!

• ‘Sea’: 32 times. ‘Land’: 13 times. ‘Sea’ + ‘Land’ = 32 + 13 = 45.

% of Sea = 32 / 45 (x100%) = 71.11111111 %

% of Land = 13 / 45 (x100) = 28.88888889 %

Modern science has only recently discovered that the above figures represent the exact proportions of Sea and Land on Earth!
