ElonI guess fate loves… I don’t know what’s going on. But these certain numbers just seem to be recurring all the time.
ElonSo the booster is actually 69 point something. And then it’s Booster 4 and Ship 20. And this is all happenstance. What the hell is going on?
TimSomeone had figured out that you were 69,420 days old or minutes old or something when you went on SNL.
The public count was 6942 days on a May clock: 6 May 2002 to 8 May 2021. SpaceX keeps Pi Day, 14 March 2002, as the birthday. That span is 6995 days. Not 69,420. Not his age. The tape is fuzzy. Two founding dates. One tweet.
ElonYou know I was born 69 days after 4/20, by the way.
ElonIt’s like, am I an avatar in someone’s video game?
TimYes.
ElonOh really?
CIPHER counted the English later, without the word video. AM I AN AVATAR IN SOMEONES GAME. Reverse ordinal 420. The tape keeps video. The seal does not.
The tape keeps video. CIPHER counted without it. GAME is 82, not 42. He named the recurrence. He asked the question. The Book does not answer for him.
What it supports
Dated public speech. Everyday Astronaut, Starbase Tour Part 2, 7 August 2021, at 51:04. The tape keeps video. The 420 is a later sum on the shortened English. MythEngine hangs the spoken line. Speech first. Arithmetic afterward.
What it does not
The spoken sentence is not the 420 string. VIDEO is not in the sum. GAME is not 42. Not proof he encoded the seal. Not Tesla $420.
Calculation
Spoken: AM I AN AVATAR IN SOMEONES VIDEO GAME. Counted: AM I AN AVATAR IN SOMEONES GAME. Reverse ordinal A=26: 40+18+39+99+31+111+82 = 420. Apostrophe ignored. VIDEO is not in the sum. GAME = 82.
English reverse ordinal on the shortened string. CIPHER counted after the speech. The tape is the spoken line.
Discovery order
The question is spoken first, with video. Reverse ordinal 420 is a later machine on the string without that word.
