Publisher knocks out 1.451mil blogs.

edit: People are missing the emphasis. This wasn't me being pedantic, it was pointing out a neat allusion.



Numerology is not a neat allusion.


Forgive me - I'm not in any way into numerology: what exactly is being pointed out here?


Fahrenheit 451.

Numerology is the reading of meaning into the odd coincidence of numbers with events. GGP's "neat allusion" is that some of the digits on the number of blogs taken down coincides with the Fahrenheit temperature at which books burn which was the inspiration for the title of a book about censorship.
