  1. I didn't know that +264 is the dialling code for Namibia, and the asteroid 264 Libussa discovered in 1886 in Clinton, New York was a nice surprise. Daily number facts like this are a fun way to collect trivia. I do something similar with Unlimited Krillion, an unlimited practice version of the Krillion rare-answer trivia game. Zane
