Mornin, Al. Reading an article about the world's largest landholders. Haven't reached your name as yet but I am only half way up the list.
Keep looking , Mick......two properties combined are about 1/3 acre... ...big houses on small lots in town, built before there were cars to get around with. Gotta go somewhere...walk.
As I suspected when I started reading the article the world's largest landholder is the Catholic Church. A hectacre is almost 2.5 acres so they hold an impressive +/- 150 million acres....but many of their adherents live in abject poverty. Way to go...

Reason: poster cannot remember simple rules of grammar and spelling

And people wonder why I have such disdain for that faith in particular. I was raised catholic, now I’m an American.
Great job, Mick. Don't check your post....should have been 'their' but spell check got me and I didn't proofread before hitting post. Calling grammar **** on myself.
