Well, let's do some spitballing here. There are estimated to be around 10^80 atoms in the known, observable universe, which is about 34 8-bit bytes worth. So we could have a unique number for each atom in the universe in only 34 bytes. In that light, the URL *does* seem to be a bit excessive. --Chuck
