[Mishmash] Paraskevidekatriaphobia?

[David Brown]

I don't know if it is the same in the US but it was the case in Oz that
there was no cell numbered 6.  The number looks a bit like a noose and was
therefore not well received.

I get a kick out of buildings where floor number go from 12 to 14 . . .
maybe more so out of people who then think there is no 13th floor.
 
Many cruise ships have no "4" anywhere . . . no deck #4, no cabin numbers
with 4 in them. They say it is because of Asian fear of 4
