This is an odd thank you to the steemit community. Most people's mile markers on this site are in 100 follower chunks. So the usual person will hit milestones at 100,200,300, etc. followers.
But not me! I love prime numbers.
As an economics geek, I've always been fascinated by the number schemes. How square roots can build buildings. The men behind the findings of these numbers. Men like Euclid, Pythagoras, and Aristotle. How they figured out how fast the earth was turning using many of the tools of the day! Fascinating stuff.
Well, I think prime numbers fall in the same category. Many math experts see prime numbers as fillers. Something that has to come in between the cool numbers that can actually do stuff!
But I love the fact that they have to be there, and as the infinitum of the number spectrum continues, the Primes will be there! The lone John Wayne's of the number world. Divisible by only themselves and the number one!
So Steemers, thanks for my 199th follower!
