Sperm Bandwidth

From slashdot.org, March 15, 1999

At 5 in the morning, an associate of mine took the time to compute the rough bandwidth consumed in the human ejaculation.

Data:

1. The human body contains 75 megabytes of genetic data.

2. So the sperm transmits 37.5 megabytes, give or take a skosh.

3. There are 100 million sperm cells in a milliliter

4. 2.25 ml per ejaculation, average.

The bandwidth works out to be:

9,019,431,321,600,000 bytes in your penis per second.

That's one heck of a portscan.
