Recently on the Marilyn vos Savant discussion board:
From ZombiePriest:
So how does the number 23 feature in all this? I'm convinced that it's in there somewhere.
I agree that it is interesting that a dimensionless number takes on a whole new dimension, but this does not seem to teach us anything about polynomials, geometry or maths. Except that there's a constant out there that tells us about the forces between electrons and protons and coincidentally if you chose a large enough polynomial number and perform some hocus pocus numerology you tend to get an error percentage of next to nothing.
This in itself is a remarkable coincidence so perhaps it is worth investigating further for that fact alone, though the maths is far beyond me at this stage. I am curious about the results and what their signifiance is - also how it relates to reality - so good luck!
