Well, it's not TOO spooky, but I was revising my lists-links page,
and while checking links it seems that both of the Christian
discussions listed have 233 members today. Can that BE? I thought I
was opening the same page over and over.

Well numbers scare me anyway. <g>

If anyone has a few moments today and wants to help me out some,
please check a few links (randomly is fine) and let me know if you
find bad ones or can think of better or additional ones.

Thanks!

Sandra - I feel the same way about numbers, they spook me, but for another
reason.

When I worked at the Police department, each crime had a different number.
484 is a petty theft, 261 is a rape, 187 is a murder, 5150 is an unstable
psychopath (which is funny, because that's part of our bank's routing number...)


I don't know if it's just because I NOTICE certain numbers, or that it's
just a coincidence, but the number 187 is always popping up. It's just a
number! But because of working years where a number coincided with an incident or
crime, I have a bad habit of putting them together. I wish I could forget
them!

Have you ever seen this list? It has "a distinctive fact" about
every number from 1 to 9999. And there are links to what the heck
he's talking about within the list too. And it's colorful. <g>

Here are some of them:

0 is the additive identity.

5 is the number of Platonic solids.
6 is the smallest perfect number.
7 is the smallest number of faces of a regular polygon that is not
constructible by straightedge and compass.
8 is the largest cube in the Fibonacci sequence.
9 is the maximum number of cubes that are needed to sum to any
positive integer.
10 is the base of our number system.
