Is ~~that~~2128 xis ~~supposed~~not equal to be25616, aand 2168 is not 2128. ~~power?~~ I have read, elsewhere, that there are enough UUIDs to assign one to every atom in the known universe. On the other hand, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observable_universe says that the known universe has about 10^80 atoms. I think that 10^80 is about 2^265, which is larger than 2^128. I'm confused.
