In Which I Change the Numeric System

I found this note taped to my office door this morning. I’m the technology director for a K12 school, and my office is inside the library. You now have just as much information as I do. Please tell me what this note means.

My guesses are:

  1. I’m expected to “fix” the state Lotto, or
  2. Manage a football team, or
  3. Eradicate all signs of the metric system in door-taped notes

I can’t even think of more snark. The note completely perplexes me. I’m not opposed to being perplexed mind you, but this level of perplexedness is rather uncommon. I anxiously await your interpretations.

UPDATE: Apparently, comments are now broken for this post. I don’t know why. If you can’t comment, I apologize. I’ll try to figure it out later…

UPDATE2: Fixed. Dunno what the deal was.

I think you have to add 17. Remember to show your work.

Probably means change computer 10 to computer 27 or something of that nature… naming convention, hostname? I don’t know how you do it nowadays.

That note is pretty cryptic… When you learn what it is you should definitely post it.

BTW, this post made me laugh.

I tried to find a pattern. 19 1; 20 2, 22 3, 25 …fell all apart right there, and doesn’t explain the 6 (or the 10, for that matter). Baffling. I can’t wait to hear what it means.

Suppose there’s any significance to the fact that the number was originally 23?

Hmmm. That looks more like a 5 under there to me.
