I have resorted to the ircorrigible art forms of numbers. Here are some fun primitve tests. Is 505 a number in the numbers games of New York in the early 1900's? What about 124? How does 232 fit in or is it out? Why? What numbers could be used to represent the phrase "Keystone and Southern?" Why is the number 288 so powerful? Which of these number archtypes or styles would be acceptable as telephone area codes in the era before all three number codes became acceptable? Before there was a machine there was a machine. Note that no arithmetic or counting is involved in the use of these numbers. There is incomplete or non-relevant serialization.
