According to the Wikipedia entry on numerology, the word refers to a "belief in the divine or mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events." Pythagoras (the right triangle guy) believed in connections between numbers, the letters in our names, the movements of the planets, and music. Some people just point out connections and say, "Whoa!" Do you think numbers have any special significance outside of measurement? Do you have a favorite number? Why or why not? (Full disclosure: My favorite number is 3. It was my grandmother's favorite number-- I don't know why-- so I adopted it. After I adopted it, of course, I found all sorts of cool things about it in geometry, sayings like "good things and sneezes come in threes," and other stuff.)
