You realize that the 23rd, when you divide 2 by 3, you'll get 666, the
devil's area code? ounds 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 number of the beast is 616, not 666.


Hey, ol' Wirenut, I thought your number was "up" or something? :-)

Welcome back.

I'm not "back"..... the thread is being crossposted to rrcb and a few
other groups. As for the number of the beast, check this out:
