Didn't work for me.

I was using my computer calculator and I got the wrong number. I got my dd's graphing calculator and it worked.

 

[floridaminnie]

It'll always work, but then I also figured out why it'll always work. Yes, I'm a math geek!

 

[Nutsy]

Nope, not my number

 

[Pin Wizard]

Wow! That's my phone number!

 

[nativetxn]

That's my phone number, how interesting

 

[nativetxn]

floridaminnie, why does it work?

 

[Nutsy]

Still doesn't work for me............wonder why?? I only get 5 digits for my answer & it's nothing like my phone number

 

[bjgrazi]

my teenager said that was cool, but not worth taking her calculator out of her backpack sigh
