While what you say has a certain merit Turfa (and please excuse me for not quoting you in full), I think that you'll soon come to learn as I did, that dots and dashes unfortunately have severe limitations when it comes to answering the really big questions facing humanity and certainly the biggest of them all - Which is the more immense, zero or infinity? Just think about it. I have been ever since I awoke at 2 O'clock this morning and the more I think about it, the the more daunting the question becomes. Must write to walkerchris77.

A week ago you posted a title containing 2 dots followed by a text with 3 of same and their meaning - either the two scripts considered in isolation or, even more confronting, together - has been occupying this forum's best minds ever since. Whether your lamentable post was a result of carelessness or something more sinster remains to be seen but whatever, it has contributed to society becoming more confused and disfunctional and with a sharp rise in the number of people reporting mental health issues. Such inflammatory threads must not be posted again and a camel borne emissary is heading your way to ensue that this outcome will be achieved.

What do you mean that's it's all about himself? Me, myself and I are hiking partners of mine, they've never let this person down! How can it be about him when they are moi

As far as I can recall:

Year 73 (LXXIII) was a common year starting on Friday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Domitianus and Catullus (or, less frequently, year 826 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 73 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.


The Roman governor Lucius Flavius Silva lays siege to Masada, the last outpost of the Jewish rebels following the end in 70 of the First Jewish-Roman War (Jewish Revolt). The Roman army (Legio X Fretensis) surrounds the mountain fortress with a 7-mile long siege wall (circumvallation) and built a rampart of stones and beaten earth against the western approach. After the citadel is conquered, 960 Zealots under the leadership of Eleazar ben Ya'ir commit mass suicide when defeat becomes imminent.
Pliny the Elder serves as procurator in Hispania Tarraconensis.
Titus Flavius Domitianus becomes Roman Consul.
Emperor Vespasian begins conquest of territory east of the upper Rhine and south of the Main. In addition, he reorganizes the defenses of the upper and lower Danube.
February – The Chinese Han Dynasty launches a major campaign against the Xiongnu, whom they confront in the Battle of Yiwulu in the Kumul oasis, an ultimate Han military victory led by General Dou Gu (d. 88).
Ban Chao (Pan-Ch’ao), competing with the Xiongnu, imposes a Chinese protectorate on the kings of Lop Nor and Khotan in the Tarim basin, with the aim of controlling the Silk Road.
Martial writes a satire on "military cowardice".
