Title: Calendar dates can be found 'encrypted' in geometric calculations?
Post by: kranwan on 20/10/2015 22:08:36: 2 geometric calculations that incredibly consistently display Gregorian calendar dates:

What if the image description was 'true'? How would a corresponding theory of information have to look like?

Appendix: The image shows 2 annulus calculations (radii: 323 / 53, 252 / 89)
Date formatting for the birthdates is ddmmyyyy (for ddmm use 3 and at least 3 digits whenever possible)
December 11th 2016 would be 1112 2016 (1112 + 2016 = 3128)
'Numerical names', ddmm + yyyy, and the zip code / area code combination are supposed to 'verify' that those numbers that seem to display dates, really are a display of dates.

Please be advised that you might have to view the image for a couple of minutes. This is no 'throwaway' post and it basically targets people who are mathematically and philosophically (very) open minded.

And what on Earth do you mean by "mathematically open-minded" ?

Numerology is any belief in divine, mystical relationship between a number and one or more coinciding events. It is often associated with the paranormal, alongside astrology and similar divinatory arts. There is no supporting evidence for the modern practice of numerology in modern science.

The odds of random letters appearing to have meaning is even less likely than random numbers , ( as alphabet has more characters than the 10 possibilities with numbers ) , but if given plenty of text, say a novel, then "hidden" meaning can be found ... https://cs.anu.edu.au/people/Brendan.McKay/codes/moby.html

Anyone claiming there is a relationship between birthdate and postcode is a numerologist.
