• The Countess of Wessex - Sophie
  • 639 - sum of the first twenty prime numbers
• Aron Ralston - amputated his own arm with a penknife
  • 887 - a prime number, a safe prime, a Chen prime, an Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part
• George Best - brilliant footballer from Northern Ireland
  • (5 digits)?
• and HM George III - British king from the House of Hanover, with suspected porphyria
  • (4 digits)

Well, that didn't help at all... -- ALoan (Talk) 22:25, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Of the 12 extra links you suggested, one is relevant. Dmn 00:49, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Oh gosh, that must be right! Presumably porphyria was the only relevant link... And you "saw" 493 once - asthma? -- ALoan (Talk) 14:29, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

It is right indeed. 493 is the comment for question 7. The comment for question 13 is "I've only had 052" which is plain old Chickenpox. 30 points for User:Ravn. Dmn 16:43, 13 December 2005 (UTC)
