   == Longitudinal mag is M**2, so the apparent volume goes as M**4,   
   == so you'd only need 1.8x linear mag.   
   	I guess you are using "**" for the "^" I am used to for exponentiation.   
     But, if the volumes in your universe are 4 D, perhaps you are an early   
   adopter of the coming Ascension to 5 D some will experience on   
   12/21/2012.  Can you see the back of your head?   
   	HINT: 1.8^4 = 10.4976   
      
   == What does an object which appears to be "10 times larger" mean to you?   
   	Since we, or at least I, see in 2D, a 10X would mean 10 times the   
   linear dimension. i.e., the common term "10 diameters" to represent   
   magnification.
