604795
One day, a friend said to me, “604795.” I didn’t understand what that number was supposed to mean.
About a week later, that same friend suddenly said, “1000.”
“Hey… what does that number mean?”
“Do you want to know?”
“Yes. I want to know.”
“Then wait about 16 minutes. After that, you’ll understand its meaning.”
Sixteen minutes—that is, in seconds, about 1,000 seconds.
