The number of the beast

While it looks like it's really 616 according to studies of a fragment found, there certainly is fun to be had with 666.

  • Add up all the numbers on a roulette table - 666! (1 through 36)
  • Ronald Wilson Reagan - 666! (6 letters in each name)
  • Take all the numbers from 1 to 500 in Roman numerals and add them up - D (500), C (100), L (50), X (10), V (5), I (1) = 666!
  • If a=6, b=12, c=18, etc (where every number is a incremental multiple of 6), then Computer = 666! (3*6)+(15*6)+(13*6)+(16*6)+(21*6)+(20*6)+(5*6)+(18*6)
Of course, there's many more..
