[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)

Wait, it currently reads 6932 = 6969, but I don't see how that's the case. Can anyone care to explain before it gets removed? McKay 05:56, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Ahh, It's 6932 ~ 6.969*1058. Hmm, can we make this any more clear? How about ~ 6969*1055 McKay 06:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
How is this interesting? For any n not a power of ten, and any finite sequence of digits, there exists m such that nm starts with that sequence. I don't see the point of noting particular instances of this, and am removing it. Algebraist 22:14, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

On a similar note, what's the line about "Internet Phenomenon (Dwangster Pimp 69)" supposed to mean? Sounds like a vanity "fact". Edit: Upon further review, it was added anonymously on 1/29/07. Given that it was anonymous, unsourced, and makes no sense, it's gone. Akbeancounter 03:20, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] yin yang symbol

shouldn't it be put that it looks a lot like the yin yang symbol. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.110.74.44 (talk) 02:01, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
