Does this make 664 the neighbor of the Beast?

For what it's worth, Mathematical Methods for Physicists by George Arfken, 3rd edition skips equation 6.66. Just goes straight from 6.65 to 6.67. Chapter 13 is there.

I think 665 would be the neighbor of the beast. Or 667. I guess that makes 664 the neighbor of the neighbor of the beast...

I love rock and roll album cover art.

It reminds me of the warnings I used to receive from my aunt that listening to heavy metal would drive the spirit away.

She was so crazy that she would tell is about the physical feelings felt when the spirit abandoned her. Like walking into a bar (family get together at Chili's... Baby back ribs), an R rated movie, or being surrounded by immodest clothing (at the beach).

Mormons and their Holy Ghost are so fickle.

Conservative churches played right into the marketing of the heavy metal bands. Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden is an entrepreneur and a commercial airline pilot. He's an upstanding citizen with a legitimate following in pop culture. Still, I won't deny that Brother Dickinson would not be elligible for a temple recommend simply from issues with chastity and the Word of Wisdom.

But opposition to the practical opportunities of a Rock and Roll lifestyle is sufficient. Adding on "driving away the spirit" and "Satanism" is just playing into the hands of theatrical atheists and agnostics. The uncomfortable truth of the LDS church is that it's astonishingly boring. Correlation and the PR department removed anything revolutionary and edgy from doctrine. LDS teenagers have very few "righteous" outlets for normal youthful desires for rebellion.

In my neighbourhood in Texas, house numbers skipped four. So the next-door neighbours of the Beast would be 662 and 670, and across the street from him would live 667.

Damn... You're right! What was I thinking? 664 and 668 are next-door neighbors to the Beast. 665 and 667 live across the street.

Especially this one by the MoTab Choir featuring Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
