For my curiousity, in this tag-line we all get all
the time, viz.,


is there a google.com driven coding of some sort?
I speak, naturally, of this part:


which might encode a number in run-length of dashes,
say, in which case it would be:

2 2 9 2 4 13 7 2 4
1 11 4 4 4 6 4 6 2 3

I am curious, but lazy. TSCM is the only Google list
I'm on, hence I've no comparand. Of course, I don't
run a google.com list either so perhaps JMA is just
funning me. The 1st is 10 digits, but parsed as a phone
number (229.241.3724) it is not in Google's megacache.
Similarly for the 2nd (1.114.446.4623). Likewise for
either re-coded as octal (13->D, 11->B). It doesn't
appear to have anything but run length to work with
but if it's unique then it is would be an efficient
search key for those who are reading everyone's e-mail
(which I have to admit would be amusing).
