Synchronicity / James Randi?

So your numbers cannot tell the difference between a character and a starship. Sounds pretty darned accurate to me!

No, it wasn't the numbers, it was the guy who was checking the links. So what does that say, that I'm not infallible? But still the connection was there and, most importantly, "verifiable."

As far as the image is concerned, I'm sure somebody could reduce it for you. I would, except I don't have my graphics software installed at this time. Ask Yahweh.

Are any numbers not amazing to you Iaachus? :)

Hello my friend T'ai Chi do you realize that was your 2458 post and that
2+4+5+8=19 and you subtract 19 from 19 you get 0

ie.19-19=0

Interestingly that is the same amount of sense Iaachus’s post make.

That was really polite of your Iacchus. :)

Now I might ask Mercutio to show me the space although I have my own flying carpet to travel in the nights as you already know....
 
Yes, that is quite a gesture, Iacchus, thank you. I do not know if I will use one (I am considering going back to my original avatar, you see), but I may very well try it on for a little while.

Again, thanks.

Your friend Mike is gay. He was just trying to get in your pants.

Silliness.

i.e.

Where do the 2 and or 3 come from? What if we use 4 and 5 for example.
What I'm illustrating is how the numbers 5, 33 and 47 are all "harmonically" the same in the base fourteen system. Follow this link if you would like to read up on it ... http://www.dionysus.org/x0401.html


14 x 4 + "5" = 61 and 14 x 5 + "5" = 75.

Or let us your numbers but change the functions used.

... i.e., 14 - 2 X "5" = 60 and 14 - 3 X "5" = 55

One can simply manipulate numbers to get what ever they seek.

Nope, I'm afraid it doesn't work, at least in the sense that I'm not accustomted to working with it.

And what I'm illustrating is how you used 2 and or 3 in this case to make your desires “come true”, other times it will be other numbers or differing formulas. As I said one can make any combination of numbers and either addition, subtraction, division etc to get to the numbers they believe mean something.

They were all “"harmonically" the same in the base fourteen system” because you used the other number and either addition, subtraction or division to make it so.. As I said with respect this is silliness.

What do you think I'm letting you off the hook here? It was not missing digits, it was built that way, in which case it will always read 479. In other words you have a one in a thousand chance of it coming up that way which, are not good betting odds ... don't you think? ;)

The point is, how many times have you bought something, and then looked at a number, like your trip odometer, your odometer, the temperature, your watch, the address, you ID badge, the license plate, the patent # on the spork, the day of the year, the year, the upc on your underwear, anything, numbers are everywhere. These coincidences are bound to happen by chance, if they didn't, that would be the miracle.

please, please, please stop using the phrase "base 14" to describe anything that 14 is added to multiplied by, squared by, derived from, etc, etc, etc. Everyone out there that has a clue about math and numbers has a strong desire to smack you upside the head every time you do.

Pick another phrase besides "base fourteen"

Did you bother to read the other posts from the beginning of the page as I asked? The Spiritual Marriage - 567 ... Not that it really matters of course I'm sure.

What else would you call it then, since it is base fourteen derived?

Of course if I was worried about all the little details like you are, chances are I never would have done anything about it which, I'm sure would have been fine with everybody else.

Ohhh, your friend Mike told you - must be true then. And a whole 7.5% of the original episodes had this number in them? Wow. Couldn't possibly be because it's a nice random sounding number? Couldn't possibly have been deliberate, like we know it was from TNG onwards?

I did my search on AltaVista ...

The USS Mercutio, a Star Trek sim in the SLA

USS Mercutio : A Star Trek sim set on an Excelsior class vessel

Actually it looks like a new movie coming out or something? Or, maybe it's just an Internet game?

Right, so not a character like you said. It's not even official Star Trek. It's just some Trekkies who happen to have called their simulated starship Mercutio. Not a big leap considering most people's favourite Starfleet captain was a big Shakespeare fan.

Wait...you mean, they weren't lurking here and impressed enough by what they saw that they built a sim just to honor me?


...Gee, davidhorman, you sure know how to hurt a guy...:p
