The Vatican contains 4.54 living Popes per square kilometer, or .0454 Popes per hectare, or 11.76 Popes per square mile, or 0.018 Popes per acre, or 2 Popes per Acre. To include non-living Popes, multiply by anywhere from 69.5 to 70.5: 315.53-320.07 per square kilometer, or 3.155-3.2 per hectare, or 817.32-829.08 per square mile, or 1.251-1.269 per acre, or 139-141 per Acre.

Bonus useless fact: The membership of useless_facts is closed, and the owner/maintainer hasn't posted since 2010. And yet, it's still a community that regularly gets new and informative (if useless) posts.

Yeah, I tried to join, and made that discovery. Did the owner die? Can he/she somehow be revived—or turn the mantle over to another user?

You have no idea how hard I've tried.

There is a way to basically take over a community that's been abandoned by its admin and mods, if you're interested.

This doesn't work if the sole owner is still actually there and replying to LJ Abuse requests and saying 'fuck off'.
