1.8 Miles of Pencils

I work with an organization that receives donations from the public. Since we work with children and it is back to school time, a lot of our donations are school supplies. Yesterday, I received an email from the person that is responsible for logging all of our donations. She informed me that we have over 16,000 pencils donated so far this year. The average length of a pencil is 7 inches, which means that at the present time we have 1.8 miles of pencils. So, while out on the journey and you have a thought, look down there just might be a pencil for you to use compliments of us.
