That damn secret movie and book. I don't exactly believe in it but everytime i play poker and what i need doesn't come out i blame my brain. I was reading something that said it can be dangerous because people may blame too much on themselves for not thinking correctly.

However, recognizing things like 9:11 happen because when you see it you stop and think. Where as when you see 9:16 you don't. You see them both the same but 9:11 has a significance and therefore when you see it you remember and therefore think you see more often than other numbers.

I mean, if we were to say 33 is significant to paul then there would be a reason. I'm not saying there is but for sake of arguement. 9:11 is probably doesn't have a higher power significance to most people yet they feel they see it more often.

I know that wasn't your point hess but i went off on a bit of tangent.
