    29,029 feet? 29,017? 29,035? Just how tall is Mount Everest? For Nepal, it's a touchy question that involves not only questions of science, but also matters of national pride.http://nyti.ms/2BR6hFf

        Because “troublemaker” doesn’t have its own honorific? 😉

        Nepal uses metres, not feet, as does 95 percent of Earth’s people. So the question itself clouds the more lofty questions.

        I never thought a few feet of difference would matter thus much to a mountain.

        The term National Pride is rare, I hope it does exist in Nepal. A term on the verge of being outlawed throughout the West.

        It's almost as tall as the mountains of BS and lies that come from your paper and your cohorts at the DNC.

        @MtEverestSEA, I know you are very special but here in #Indiana, we have Mount Baldy. It is a sand dune located at @IndianaDunesNPS on the southern shore of Lake Michigan and is 126 feet tall. It is a wandering dune. Can you wander? Here is what the south slope looked like today:pic.twitter.com/ytHVJbR4bm

        It is no fixed height because the plate is still being pushed up daily by the collision with the Indian Subcontinent.

        I guess if they want it taller they can MAKE it taller. Gonna have to haul a lot of rock up there, though.
