 Gosh, Wes.  I don't know why anybody cares what the perfect number is.  I think a really great number is good enough.  Perfect is just too much.
 You mentioned 23, and that strikes me as being pretty neat as numbers go.  I was born on August 23, it's a prime number, it's almost two dozen, it's the last two numerals on my license plate -- that makes it good enough for me.  Yep, I'll vote for 23 as a really great number.
