I've been so conditioned to see "33" "6" etc etc spattered all through the news that it jumped right out and smacked me in the face when I saw this at the bottom of an Epoch Times article this morning.
"On Monday, a 17-mile convoy consisting of hundreds of armored vehicles, tanks, artillery, and support vehicles was just 17 miles from the center of Kyiv, according to satellite imagery from the Maxar company."
We all know what 17 means.
I think our collective consciences are causing this. I know it sounds weird, but together we create/affect reality.
Well it supposedly is 40 miles now, does that mean anything?
