The number of the beast.

So we've survived June 6th without any apocalyptic events - apart from the opening of a rather unnecessary remake of the film "The Omen". Of course, there are those who believe that the true demonic number is not 666 at all, but 616. Doesn't have quite the same ring though, does it? Of course, this whole numerology thing is complete tosh, because, even if you accept the basic premise, there is no agreement on what the relationship is between numbers and letters - or more to the point, you can use whatever system you wish. Which of course means that you can come up with whatever answer suits your fancy. A politician's dream!!
