This video describes dimensional analysis, which is all that's going on. You just multiply the original number of milliliters by conversion factors until you get years.

Since almost half a billion years =/= 11 years, I think SammichEater's math is wrong, but I'm not sure what the mistake could be.

That is correct. I went wrong somewhere on my initial calculation. Figures, it's the simple mistakes that get me every time.

Doesn't matter, I was being somewhat sarcastic anyway.

There's a difference between ret*d and retardant. I wish I had a ret*d retardant, or an ability to ret*d ret*ds.
