I was talking about the number 9 recently, influenced by 9-9-9 two weeks ago and by general fascination with numbers, and thought rare readers might enjoy this article on the subject. Aside from other things, it points out the lengths that one of its military leaders, Ne Win, went to in order to insinuate 9 into the fabric of the Burmese economy.

Don't forget to take note and maybe even smile four times today. At 9:00 and 9:09 a.m. and 9:00 and 9:09 p.m. today. To be precise, that's at 9 on 9/9/9 or 9:09 on 9/9/09. And we can celebrate this evening again at 9:09.09 on 9/09/09. And today, for once, both d/m/y and m/d/y fans are on in sync. Cool.
