Maybe you have seen this before, but let's assume you haven't and can answer this question:

If you can, you are considered to have an IQ at genius level:

Question:

What is the next number in this sequence?

61
52
63
94
46
........?


Here is an even better question: If every American, 300 million or so, was to plant a tree, would that be enough to suck up a reasonable percentage of the green house gases being emitted into the air to save our planet?

I think our grandchildren are all screwed. Glad I will be dead by next century.

Who the feck cares? Tell me how it will make me some money or how it will benefit me if I take the time to figure it out and I might get interested.

When you look at the sequence, look at those numbers backwards... and you'll see a pattern:

16,25,36,49,64

What do you see...

4 squared
5 squared
6 squared
7 squared
8 squared
leaveing....

9 squared = 81

backwards becomes 18


sorry to ruin it for the others
