Yeah, that number is my password for some things.

I just identified it as the 6 numbers I had to memorize if I wanted to divide by 7 in my head. I didn't know it was special in any other way.

Try dividing 1/81 and you will see another of my passwords.

Ptolomey liked how the Babylonians used a zero as a placeholder and incorperated it in his numbersystem. The Mayans had a real zero that looked like a sub-sandwich. Euclid finally got round to writing the rules for arithmatic of naught long after.

GREAT TIMES!
