Jerry,

I know Hacho (as in the wonderful miso) means 8...also from the street it
has been made on for 600 years...Interesting hacho and ocho  etymological
similarity...Years ago (1960's) I was one of 2 Anglos invited to bowl with a
Nisei league (second generation) a very high honor indeed...
So I suppose in some cultures 1's and 4's are the same as Christendom's 666
?
