For those wondering, this is from “Science: Abridged Beyond the Point of Usefulness”, by the inestimable Zach Weinersmith.

I think you meant estimable (worthy of great respect), not inestimable (too great to calculate), although I guess they both work.

Inestimable also means "of great value"

Inflammable means flammable? What a country!
