If two equals ten, then how many angels can stand on the head of a pin?

Can't you just measure the foot-size of an angel, the surface area of a pin and do the division yourself?

Was that supposed to be a question? At any rate, is it true that Nymtoc danced the tango on the head of a pin with the aforementioned angel?

Isn't it how many dancers can pin down an angel? And does it go to the angel's head?
