useless fact for today:
the linux kernel if(2.6.17, 39m compressed)
encoded to punchcards would make a stack approx 1242 feet high.
roughly 124 stories tall or 10 ft shorter than the empire state building.

I read a wikipedia article pulled some numbers out of my ass and came to a less than perfect assumption. I suspect that i grossly over estimated the thickness due to dameage in my sample. (one crumpled punchcard, now rendered into woodgas and char) your much larger sample size allows for a higher level of confidence.
