A clarification
Sunday, July 14, 2002 by adni18 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
If you notice, today, there is a number 666, next to my name, in the Top Authors. I want to make it clear for you that has nothing to do with me personally 
Not that I care or I believe such things, (like 666 = the number of the beast), but some of you may believe and make strange thoughts.
It is just a thread about this coincidence and I like to know how many of you believe in such things.

This whole numerology mumbo jumbo. It is just some sort of wierd safety net to make religeous people feel better. Same thing with the cross and symbolism. A realm I will not step into because I do not want to cause any trouble.
Ok, so what about #13 or even #23? 13 supposed to be bad luck. 23 is the number of doom.
Supposedly. buildings seem to be, or used to be, supersticious about having 13 floors. So they went from 12 to 14.
How often do you here or see the #23. Probably none right now. After this post maybe a bit more than usual?
Just my rambelings

I don't hear or see the number 26, 29, 31, 33, etc. Are these all unlucky numbers too 
Now I'm scared.

neoTropic...I believe the paranoia relating to the 13th floor of a building is a peculiarity of the US...

that floor system thing that Jafo mentioned is true. and if youthink that well they still have a 13th floor beacuse it is the 14th floor renamed... Wrong!! They (especilly hotels) have a 13th floor that has nothing on it. A hole floor with no anything. just a place holder
Or the 13th floor will be a floor with air ducts and HVAC hardware.
and yes the ground floor/first floor thing has more to do with a naming convention then the 13th floor (although I am sure it was used)

I was just joking with adni, feline. In reality, I wouldn't know a binary number from a zero or a one.
