This has nothing to do with providing an explanation. What is an
is that you reflexively burdened us with a quantitative "solution" tothose
something which is inherently magical. This is just as boorish as
who try to show that religion is somehow meaningless because they canin
point out countless contradictions in the Bible.

metaphorthis thread before you had a chance to try to figure it out forthe
yourself. I abjectly abase myself and solemnly swear never to do it
again.

BRAVO! Entirely correct!
And if they had simply included the number 0 among the multiples
9
(all having the same symbol) it would also work for the numbers
backthrough 09.
