Lines: 16 From: Denber.wbst@XEROX.ARPA "With a number like "6", he should have been high in the ruling heirarchy" "You are forgetting that no one was above suspicion in the village, even number two." Also, it was pointed out in a number of episodes that Number 6 was somehow "special". Number 2 always had orders that Number 6 was not to be harmed. His number reflects his status. Evidently, the Village just had a smaller ruling hierarchy than say your typical large American corporation. What I always wanted to know is who were Numbers 3, 4, and 5. I don't recall a single mention of them. - Michel
