283 Redundant

The legend says the King promised the inventor of the chess any compensation he wished. The Inventor asked for one rice grain for the first square, 2 for the second, 4 for the fourth and so on, doubling each time. The King happily agreed. But to the King's dismay, he would not be able to satisfy the Inventor request, even if he ordered to plant rice on the whole Earth. So he convicted the Inventor to death... Redundant expectations can be tricky.

@blueace Thank you, effectively, it's all there!

Now that's a solution that could effectively be applied to certain difficult individuals today!

@vignouse Sometimes I need to repress a thought that it should...

[Margo Sayer]

VML how you've given the precedent to the rice grains. Effective touch.

[Domenico Dodaro]

@s4sayer thank you very much! You caught the intent!

[Walks @ 7]

Be careful what you ask for.... Great composition. Fav!

[Domenico Dodaro]

@joysabin thanks, that was not easy, to arrange all those rice grains only on the first row...

I absolutely love this in every way Domenico!
