The Cursed Numbers from Lost
Feb. 28th, 2006 11:24 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
I'd forgotten what they were exactly, so I looked them up and made a crack to
blackmanta about not using them for the Mega Millions jackpot. The page I found the numbers on had all kinds of interesting stuff about each number. A couple of items aren't true anymore (I added notes to those) but the rest is quite illuminating. Or freaky. Or obsessive. So I'm pasting it here for my own reference and anyone else who's curious on what other people are finding in the number sequence:
