(Shhhhh! Don't tell Frederik, but I think people imported some
quantity of those numbers, and the stars haven't fallen from the
sky[1]. For the record, 923 of my addresses were lovingly hand-picked,
sanded with 100, then 400 grit, stained, varnished, and mounted on an
artesian iron bracket. The other 12,738 were roughly and mechanically
inserted, after I had verified that they were about as accurate as
doing them all by hand, one at a freaking time.)
