 WE> On second thought, how about the seventh day?
 CH> OK, so what about it?
Time for a break. -)
 
 WE> But since Xmas is over, how about a half dozen dozens?
 CH> How many?
Let D = dozen.
Half dozen = D/2
Half dozen dozens = (D/2) * D = D^2 / 2
According to my calculations a half dozen dozens is half a squared dozen.
So what a dozen dozen?
