49, that's a lot of fingers and toes. You SURE you can go that high?

You know you can count toes more than once, right....

[Cattle/Horses]

How does that work?

[BWest]

use the toes as the 10s place and you can count to 110

or count in binary with fingers and toes and you can count every piece of brass for every cartridge you load and more

^^^ HUH?

[BWest]

each finger would represent a power of two, and you just "select" if it's on/off or included in the total to represent a number.

so on your right hand:

thumb - 1
index - 2
middle - 4
ring - 8
pinky - 16

to show 'one', just show the thumb
to show 'two', just show the index
to show 'three', show the thumb and index because 1+2=3
to show 'four', just the middle finger

on one hand you can count to anything that is a combination of 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16

add more hands and feet and you can add larger powers of two, so 32, 64, 128 and so on, and can count even higher.

use binary left to right and you'll get 1,023 on just your hands.

Ya'll have put entirely too much thought into counting on your fingers and toes.

Aww man, I bet BWest was going to suggest hex next. But 32 still looks a lot better than 31
