neoTropic...I believe the paranoia relating to the 13th floor of a building is a peculiarity of the US...

that floor system thing that Jafo mentioned is true. and if youthink that well they still have a 13th floor beacuse it is the 14th floor renamed... Wrong!! They (especilly hotels) have a 13th floor that has nothing on it. A hole floor with no anything. just a place holder

Or the 13th floor will be a floor with air ducts and HVAC hardware.

and yes the ground floor/first floor thing has more to do with a naming convention then the 13th floor (although I am sure it was used)

Oh yes! That's very bad. It is "666" in binary.

I was just joking with adni, feline. In reality, I wouldn't know a binary number from a zero or a one.
