What is your next answer in this series: 1, 5, 32, 220, 1535...?

Please show proof with your answer. Use a finite series, or preferably, an infinite series.

Give me a hint GT! Will you please?

djohnsto77, you are a genius!!! Please tell me how long it took to solve this problem that I created.

After you tell me, this thread should be closed.

Apparently, there are more mathematical geniuses on ATS then I realized.

I don't know, it had to be less than 25 minutes since I saw it for the first time after ben posted.

Congrats on solving the GT riddle. I have noticed the Eastern Airlines log for so long I have to ask how/why you are affiliated with them Dj.

I flew with them when I was a kid and rode the "If you had wings" ride at Disney World that I love that logo.

Yeah, it's the IYHW logo, I grabbed it off some fan site and thought it would make a cool background. I grew up not far from WDW.

Well I am 37 and had plenty of Disney adventures old school style between 1977 and 1984. That was my younger years living in Florida in Melbourne.

Not to highjack this thread, but I would be intereseted in hearing about you Florida life if it is interesting as mine...LOL

Back to you GT

I lived I guess NE of Orlando on I4 in Seminole County (the other side of Orlando from Disney World)

Anyway, Disney was fun, but all in all I hated Florida. I'm much happier living in New York now.
