i don't think any of this is by accident.
what else could 23 be?
initially i think of 11pm, military time
it can't be a timezone shift, because that's +12 or -12, never gets to 23
-23 degrees of latitude or longitude
-23 degrees of temperature
23 was jordan's number when he played with rodman
it's a prime (the ninth)
atomic number of vanadium (which is important if you follow the CoVFeFe theory, making the string 6-23-26-26 or F-W-Z-Z)
number of chromosome pairs in a human
telnet port
W. if something was being signed by W instead of Q, they might say -W
so many possibilities.
