o course, if we were to internationalise the elevator ights, we';d
have to syubtract 1 (as we count from zero, not 1) and then they'd all
be even numbers....unless of course one of them was the one even
prime...

the prime number sequence ..I.E as the elevator descended or ascended ??
if so..
then they were part of the ietf convention
else
they were a bunch of normal geeks....
