34

Seven years ago, Mr. Bull answered a question at Yahoo Answers, in fine fashion, and today I became the first person to "like" Mr. Bull's answer. Welcome to social media.

Today, Mr. Bull's answer to a question became a key component of my work.

Some years ago I described to someone, a Mr. Aurora, a somewhat complicated system for defining the locations of things in space, and he commented, musing, "isn't it all just numbers?" Today, though the system I described then is, I think, still relevant, I have an answer which also confirms Mr. Aurora's thought. I find my result, as regarding the power of a digital number, astonishing.
