It was a forward from someone I don't even know, but somehow ended up on a mailing list of theirs. Those ones with about 50 people that get a steady stream of everything from Nigerian scams to bits about how Microsoft is beta testing an email program to how some lady sued pepsi to how someone stole the chocolate chip cookie recipe from mrs.smith's cookies to whatever.....all those urban legends that are still floating around.

Its funny how people attach things to a sequence of numbers.

I asked my students if the odds of the lottery coming out 1-2-3-4-5-6 was less than another sequence, they all said yes.

lol I've always chosen lottery numbers in sequence for that reason.

I wonder if that e-mail could have said that even though that day will never happen again it is also infinite...

Too bad it was today for people who follow the day-month-year date notation.

Btw, 6th June this year will be an interesting date too.

Every moment is still in time so it's sort of infinite. So even though it will never happen again, if you get all metaphysical with that shit you might also say that the moment although unique is infinite. You fucking unoriginal bastard.
