Paper Folding Equation

11/17/2005 9:49 AM

It has long been a mathematical fact that you can not fold something in half more than 8 times. Most people don't realize Britney Gallivan of CA now holds the record by folding a piece of paper a ground breaking 12 times. She first accomplished it using a sheet of gold paper, but then replicated it using normal paper.
