"The light of the body is the eye" - Miracles at a Roadside Hamburger Shop


Tokyo


Miracles at a Roadside Hamburger Shop 


Cars are stopped by a traffic signal there for 80 seconds.  And then they are allowed to pass the crossing for 80 seconds.

Every second two cars have passed by my side while I was standing before or sitting in a hamburger shop.  In one interval of the stop and go, almost 160 cars must be running on the three-track road in each direction.  In 15 minutes or 900 seconds, about 900 vehicles, including Toyota Priuses, taxis, trucks, etc.

A licence number of a Japanese car consists of a few elements.  The main element has four digits of numerals, such as 12-34, 2-34, 34, or 4.  So, a probability to meet a car with the license number of 11-11 is 1/9 x 1/9 x 1/9 x 1/9 = 1/6,561 = 0.00015, since there is no 00-00.

However, among numbers from 1 to 9,999, there are only nine cases that a number has the four identical numbers in each digit: 11-11, 22-22, 33-33, 44-44, 55-55, 66-66, 77-77, 88-88, and 99-99.  The ratio is 9 in 9,999, meaning 1/1,111.

But while I was watching the flow of cars around the hamburger shop for 15 minutes, I could check about 900 cars.  But as above explained, I could see one in 1,111 cars having a license number with an identical number in each of the four digits.  Since 900 is roughly close to 1,111, there is surely a chance that I can spot such a car with a license number, such as 55-55.

In 15 minutes I usually spend in the hamburger shop watching cars passing on a road by the shop, I would probably see one car with four identical numbers in the main element of its license number plate.
    
One day I saw four such cars.  And in another day, I saw three such cars.  And in the latter day, I saw a car with a number 1, meaning 00-01, twice.   This probability is of course one in 9,999 like any number such as 45-67.  But I saw such a car twice.

Can it be a miracle?

The Second Coming of the Christ is near or has been realized with some miracles around believers.
