Out here in the 'burbs, we’re quite, but respectible.

Well, that was kind of interesting. Unfortunately, here at the SDMB, no one has the ability to follow my grandmother’s advice: “Love thy neighbor as thyself, but wisely select your neighborhood.”
I went back and took TheLoadedDog’s original idea of checking out my whole block, but alas, similar to my neighbor Aliyah613, (who must have moved from Ontario to Israel and didn’t bring their PC with them), it’s still a rather uninhabited street.
There were some pretty good google results from the member numbers too. Mainly those of: [ul][li]gotpasswords []neutron star, and []Number[/ul]When gotpasswords implied a zip code came up as a hit, I went and checked my zip codes as member #’s and still came up with duds:[/li]11783 – Seaford (Home) = stellaclaire (1 post)
10704 – Yonkers (Work) = ghoke (0 posts)
11510 – Baldwin (My Bar) = Amanda (2 posts)
Then I even went and checked my birthday:
10/4/67 = jom - Another monk. Let’s hope they never decide to purge the inactive accounts, the member count may go down to triple digits.
I was surprised to see how many quiet avenues and thoroughfares there are round these parts. For the select few, who live in vibrant neighborhoods, namely: [ul][li]MikeG []Kat []Sengkelat []interface2x []Smashed Ice Cream []JavaMaven1 []Desmostylus []Kal []Mullinator []Attrayant []chukhung []cjhoworth []Cervaise []peepthis []greenbean []Max Torque []dono []AbbySthrnAccent, and []Xgemina[/ul]You have it better than the majority of us living in the desolate, rural areas. Always keep this in mind: Nothing makes you more tolerant of a neighbor’s noisy party than being invited[/li]A lot of Banned neighbors too. There’s nothing worse for property values than an abandoned house on the block. I hope[ul][li]Fizzestothetop []lovelyluka []mipiace []ArchiveGuy []eunoia []Grelby []peepthis []Bren_Cameron []Qis []Tir Tinuviel []Jeffwc, and NightRabbit[/ul]are at least going over and picking up the piles of Pennysavers that have accumulated on your neighbors’ doorsteps.

Low Member Numbers: Kat & Kyla: No need to fight over who’s smaller
Member # Palindrome: Ferris: If my probability calculations are correct, for a 5 digit number, the odds of it being a palindrome are just .73%.
Slight Confusion: Honeydew: Those might have been post ID#’s, either that or the 6 digit member #’s you gave are from an alternate dimension.
Stumbling upon the Key to a Successful Marriage: Shayna – For those really bad days, sometimes it might be a good idea to not even be on the same block as your spouse
Last, But Not Least, Mega Thanks: To Rowrrbazzle – That’s a neat coding trick. One in which I definitely will make use of.
