Scroll over your name and look at the bottom. It will say something like: "http://www.net54baseball.com/member.php?u=820", where "u" = your user number.

wow...69 for me...the year I was born...and so much more!

I'm #52. Nothing really relevant there that I'm aware of.

Dude, sex and baseball cards do NOT mix. Um, I mean unless you're at a Yankee game.

When considering the pros and cons I guess that's a check mark for TPG and slabs.

I knew there was a reason I didn't take my cards to games...

Thank you....that was a lot easier then I thought it was. #30 for me.

I waited too long a got crappy 593.

Edited to add:

Hey....593 ain't so bad after all. It is a special prime number whose square is greater than the product of its neighboring two primes - called a Good Prime. It is also a Right Prime because it remains prime after dropping any number of digits from the right...i.e. 593, 59, and 5 are all prime.

It is also the sum of seven consecutive primes (71 + 73 + 79 + 83 + 89 + 97 + 101) and the sum of nine consecutive primes (47 + 53 + 59 + 61 + 67 + 71 + 73 + 79 + 83).

Cool!

Eric, thank you for asking... I had wondered the same, wandered back to the CP and was fooling around there, came back here, and saw your question and the answer.

I just hope "CON" represents his initials and not his avocation.

edited to add: My cousin was killed by a prime number. It's okay though, he was kind of a tool.

I was just thinking that

Cool!

WOW! That's deep.

Eric, I too am a prime number (#103.)

According to Wikipedia #103 is the 27th prime number. The previous prime is 101, making them both twin primes. It is also a happy number.

I am so excited I ended up with a happy number!

Since we are on the topic of obscure references for our user number. Mine user number is 77. What is apropos about that? Well, not only is it the sum of the first 8 prime numbers and a Blum integer, it also has a vintage baseball reference.

It along with the #78 forms a Ruth-Aaron pair.

In mathematics, a Ruth-Aaron pair consists of two consecutive integers (e.g. 714 and 715) for which the sums of the prime factors of each integer are equal:

714 = 2 × 3 × 7 × 17
715 = 5 × 11 × 13
and 2 + 3 + 7 + 17 = 5 + 11 + 13 = 29

I would imagine that this is called a Ruth-Aaron pair due to the sequence followed with the HR record being broken, but that probably goes without saying.

If only distinct prime factors are counted, the first few Ruth-Aaron pairs are:
(5, 6), (24, 25), (49, 50), (77, 78), (104, 105), (153, 154), (369, 370), (492, 493), (714, 715), ...

Thanks to Wikipedia for the reference.

a blum integer! now I've heard everything!
