Hey Y'all:

I now know that I have something in excess of 280 gallons of mostly Lego
bricks. Is there any way to extrapolate from that an approximation of the
number of bricks I am owning?  Just curious...

Sure.

Fill a 1 gallon pail (ice cream bucket) with a random assortment of bricks.

Count the bricks.

Multiply by 280.


...or were you hoping someone had already done the first two steps for you? ;)
