[edit] Strobogrammatic square?

I hate to ask... but what does 69 being a strobogrammtic square (in base 12, no less), have to do with the sexual position? Besides--it's rendered as "59" in base 12, which doesn't look strobogramattic to me. --EngineerScotty 03:17, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

I can't see that strobogrammatism has anything to do with sex. I split out that use of "69" into its own entry, corrected the number system, and spliced the sexual-connotation text together. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 15:34, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Interesting?

"Also interesting is that 6932 = 6969..." Who says it's interesting? I'm changing to "Something to note is that..." btg2290 20:42, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
