Mario,

This is fun stuff. I realize you're not implicating anything supernatural, since the odds of your 'coincidences' are probably about the same as those of hitting a small animal while driving from point "a" to point "b" (and how many of us have done that?). Nevertheless. I have to respond:

-- there will be approximately 9% of Julian dates whose digits add up to 11.

-- "Area codes" are American, but I think you meant 'country' codes. The country codes for Iran & Iraq are 98 and 964, respectively.

-- Flight 77 had 64 aboard, not 65.

-- "Ramzi Yousef" and "Afghanistan" are Anglicized versions of Arabic words.

-- "New York City"? "The Pentagon"? That's a little contrived, don't you think? What about "George W. Bush"? "Dick B. Cheney"? "New York Jets"?

Okay, that's enough. Thanks for the source of fun.
