Which reminded me of this incident from a while back:

I was walking past a tall wooden fence one day. You know, the kind you see around a building site. As I walked along beside it I heard chanting coming from behind the fence further up... they were chanting "21 today, 21 today, 21 today".

It sounded like a small crowd, young and old; men, women and children. And they sounded very excited.

As I approached I saw a small hole in the fence just big enough to look through. The hole was right where the sound appeared to be originating from.

So, with the crowd continuing to chant "... 21 today, 21 today, 21 today" I leaned down to look throught the hole and work out just what was happening in there.

Just as I put my eye to the hole a small finger like that of a child poked me in the eye and the crowd cheered loudly and started chanting again...

"22 today, 22 today, 22 today..."

Bugger the 100k... the solid 9's is more significant, surely? :)

Maybe we should print a banknote to celebrate,
all with the same number...ACF16 100000 or
ACF16 99999 if you prefer. :)
