It's known that BB(14) is bigger than Graham's number, but this new finding leads me to believe that BB(7) is probably bigger than Graham's number. Intuitively, the technology required to go from pentation to Graham's number feels simpler than the technology required to go from `47,176,870` to `2 <pentate> 5`.

Thanks for sharing; your post would fit well as an answer to mine about Graham's number...
