I was hoping it didn't turn out to be a cheesy thread posted by someone trying to be the millionth poster.

Hey, I resent the term "Cheesy!"

I prefer "tacky"

Nice try -- but you know the number 999,999 itself does have some interesting mathematical properties:

1/7 of 999,999 == 142,857
2/7 of 999,999 == 285,714
3/7 of 999,999 == 428,571
4/7 of 999,999 == 571,428
5/7 of 999,999 == 714,285
6/7 of 999,999 == 857,142


And congrats to Marcus for the millionth thread on a very appropo topic...
