What is the color of the number 4? 4 has many interesting characteristics among them being the following.. Consider that 4 is the only number that two numbers that result in it as a sum also result in it when they are multiplied by each other (ie. 2X2 =4 and 2+2 =4)

Considering as well that the square root of 4 is 2 makes this even more amazing... 4 is an amazing number....This is not original with me...but it reminds me of a guy I knew in college named Jonathan D. who said that when they were kids in the back seat of their car traveling somewhere their dad (who was obsessed with the above discussion about 4) would start coming down hard on the kids for being rowdy or whatever kids do in the back seat and their attempt to distract him would be to call out.. Hey dad....where is your research on the number 4 at these days..and he would be so thrilled that someone was interested in this subject that he would promptly launch into a discussion of where his current thinking on the subject was and totally forget about the reprimand that had been forthcoming.....Kids...learn way to fast.....

cheers...
