It's in pi.dat, by the way, and pieguy himself explains it quite nicely in the comments section of the pi.dat page:

Quote:this level is theoretically possible, but will take over 3.14*(10^20) years to complete. this happens because a glider reaches (30,27) only when all 10 clone buttons are simultaneously pressed, which happens every 97*101*103*107*109*113*127*128*131*133*135*137*139 = 968333183920508936927967360 steps, since those are the lengths of the paths of the fireballs, and they share no common factors. the 53rd glider to reach (30,27) will trigger the clone machine at (1,0) 66 steps after it is cloned. the first glider to reach (30,27) is cloned after 1 step, and it will take chip 2 steps to reach the exit after the clone machine is triggered, for a total of 1+52(968333183920508936927967360)+66+2 = 50353325563866464720254302789 steps. there are 5 steps in a second, 86400 seconds in a day, and 365.24 days in a year, for a total of 3.19*(10^20) years.
You should probably be playing CC2LP1.
