I'm not crazy. I started noticing it three weeks ago and now I see it EVERYWHERE. The number 23. It's in everything if you look for the pattern.

Think about it. JFK was shot in the 11th month, on the 22nd. 22 + 1 = 23. The Zapruder film, the motorcade, the whole thing -- the 23 is buried in there if you work at it. The dollar bill: 13 steps on the pyramid, and if you add the other major symbols you land on 23. I haven't counted the eagle's feathers yet but I will.

I'm keeping a notebook. I'm writing down every occurrence. Once you SEE it you CANNOT UNSEE IT. Please tell me someone else is seeing this too. This is not numerology, this is PATTERN RECOGNITION. The number 23 is being EMBEDDED in everything around us. Why? I need to know why.

Interesting pattern-chasing. Have you considered, though, that if you try hard enough you can make almost any set of numbers reduce to any target number you want?

The catch is the denominator. For every date or object that reduces to 23 using your method, there are dozens that reduce to 7, or 14, or 19, or any other number. If you count ALL the dates, or all the facts about an object, you get a distribution across many numbers. The fact that 23 shows up sometimes is exactly what you would expect by chance.

Try this: pick a different target -- say 7. Run the same process. You will find it everywhere too. That is not a conspiracy; that is what happens when you are allowed to add, subtract, count forward, count backward, and combine systems until you get the answer you wanted. Count the ones that do NOT make 23 with the same method. That is your actual denominator.

I do not mean this unkindly. But before you conclude 23 is being "embedded" in reality, you need a control.

No. You're not listening. I'm not "trying hard" -- these are OBVIOUS. I don't have to search for the 23. It FINDS me.

A "control"? That's what someone says when they don't understand something. Maybe 7 appears a lot too, fine. But does 7 appear in the places where MAJOR EVENTS happen? Does 7 appear in the architecture of POWER? No. It's 23. And if you can't see that then you're either not looking or someone is making sure you don't see it.

Found another one. Waco. The fire was April 19th. 4 + 19 = 23. And it occurred in 1993 -- 1 + 9 + 9 + 3 = 22, plus the one siege = 23. Ruby Ridge, the standoff, same kind of marker if you count it right. Every major government action has a 23 buried in the date or the aftermath. They KNOW. They mark it.

I am not crazy. I'm awake. The rest of you are asleep.
