You realize that the 23rd, when you divide 2 by 3, you'll get 666, the
devil's area code? ? Sounds like a bad omen to me.... ? ?:-)


Sorry, that is a SERIOUS FACTUAL ERROR!!!

Dividing 2 by 3 results in the decimal fraction 0.66666666666666...

That is NOT the Bible's reference to "the number of the beast."



The difference is 665.33333333333333334. Way, way off. Completely
wrong. A Factual Error!
