$215,000 for lucky phone number
Saturday, November 6, 2004 Posted: 1240 GMT (2040 HKT)
BEIJING, China (AP) -- A Beijing man has paid $215,000 for the ultimate
in lucky cell phone numbers -- 1, followed by a string of 3s.
The phone number was sold this week at an auction in the Chinese
capital, newspapers reported Saturday.
Chinese tradition considers 3 a lucky number and groups of 3s even
luckier. Though the number 8 is the luckiest, all Chinese cell phone
numbers begin with "13," making it impossible to make a number with all 8s.
The reports by the Beijing Times and Beijing Morning Post didn't
identify the buyer. Phone calls to the number on Saturday weren't answered.
Hotels, restaurants and other businesses in China regularly try to
obtain phone numbers with groups of 8s. Those that can't wind up
settling for groups of other numbers.

Most of them belive in that garbage.
Another stupid thing about Chinese people is that they abort alot of
female babies. So the younger generation is about 54% male and 46%
female. In a few years they'll be wondering why their precious son can't
find a wife.

Too late - in many places young women can't go out alone any longer; they risk being
kidnapped.

Actually that's good. Population growth is determined by the size of the
female population.
As to taking care of the males, isn't it just a matter of legalizing gay
marriage? (Tradition is there too, not a big deal.)
