Bill,

The Number of the Beast is a base 10 quantity.

More importantly it's the 62nd anniversary of the invasion of Normamdy and the beginning of the end of World War II.

The actual 'number of the beast' is 616 (according to scholars that have re-translated the oroginal writings), but so what, it's all bullshit anyway. =20

Pe> Or 666.=20

Well..... I might just let them keep France next time...

You have some spare time, Jeff. I live near the old Route 666, but the U.S. government, which is not supposed to have any "law respecting an establishment of religion", has changed it to U.S. 491. To add insult to injury, Purgatory ski resort has been changed to "Durango Mountain Resort". Most locals blame these events on the process of Californication. Let's have a moment of silence, for the disappearance of Hell, or at least Hellish names, from Earth.

I should have made it clear that I didn't write that, it showed up in my email today... it was too good not to pass on.

I think I saw a move about US 666, you can imagine what sort of movie it was . Bunch of PCBS them changing the name of the highway like that.

Are you familiar with this wonderful website?
