One man's obsession with the number 72. Its frequent use in film and television. And his relentless search for proof that it's not just in his head.

Seinfeld Part 2
After watching dozens of episodes, I finally saw Jerry's car license plate. (With Jerry being dragged behind) No surprise that it has a 72 in it. I reported previously that the car Jerry gave his parents also had a 72. Nice that the titular character's own car has one too.
Since I have the flu (I hope its not avian in nature) I have pondered your "72" quandary a bit. (Okay..I'm bored..work with me here.) LOL Did you realize that you in fact, are connected with 72? (This is taking into account that profiles online are accurate of course..i.e. correct birthdate, name..etc.) Year of birth "72". Birthdate 12th of Sept. being divisors of 72, (12 & 9). *cali voice: "So like dude, yer totally connected!" Mathmatically...in base 10, 72 is a Harshad number. In Sanskrit it means "great joy". Although I never thought math was great joy..more like an Excedrin moment.
In astronomy the moon is 1/72nd the size of the earth, and Saturn 72 times the volume of terra firma. Quirky..
According to the Kabbalah, God has 72 names. Pretty much everyone knows that Jesus was in his tomb for 72 hours before rising from the dead.
And if you love code breaking, which I'm still working on that Zodiac thing.. your name if put into English alphabetical number (A=1,B=2, Z=26 etc etc..), your name "Gideon Emery" is 73. LOL...and THAT could mean anything. Perhaps it means you have something "extra" that most people don't have, like charisma. *wink
The number 72 crops up frequently in the license plates of vehicles in films and TV shows. Too frequently to be a coincidence, in my opinion. This blog seeks to provide proof of this theory and possible reasons behind the number's integration.
72 is a powerful number in itself. Why? Because it's a multiple of the extraordinary number 9. Any multiple of nine, when added together, equals the number 9. (eg: 9x8=72, 7+2=9)
If you have pics of 72 in films and TV shows, let me know and I'll include them in a future update.
