What does the bolded number refer to? (It kinda looks like half of a lat/lon position. But since there is no 419th parallel or meridian, it can't be that.)
Is that your bar tab to date?
Looks to me like it's the phone number.
Lithonia OperatorWhat does the bolded number refer to?
It's a cutesie convention from the Nineties, when URL dotted notation was cutting-edge modern, and things like india.arie or will.i.am were considered witty social commentary. The idea was to use dots instead of dashes in the telephone number, to invoke that Internet vibe.
Obsolete for about 2 decades now, but if you painted it on a wall or made up stationery with it, you might be stuck... if dbd's use of it in in sync with the date he last made a payment on his bar tab, I'd have some concerns.
DiveBarDave's postings seem strangely familiar.....
Particularly with the Ohio references.

I think you're right. And the mention of bars, especially the dive type near a station.
Flintlock76 Looks to me like it's the phone number.
Don't go getting all technical on me now ...
Phone number. Duh. I'm clearly losing it.
Man, I lost it years ago!
On the other hand, it didn't hurt a bit and I felt so much better afterward!

Not really. I see it used still. I always preferred it - it seems more classy and neat.
Or if we insist on using the hyphens (which can be sloppy, depending on font, IMO), can we ditch the parenthesis around the area code? 10-digit dialing is pretty much standard.
Or we could follow international protocal and use neither. 101 867 5309?

An area code like 419 is an old one, any one with a one or a zero as the middle digit goes back a ways, like 212 or 201. The thing is, to find the alphabetical prefix. BUtterfield 8 and the one I grew up with AMityville 4- and so forth.

Awright, now I'm afraid we're going to get into another feud, with several pages of name-calling and insults about whether to use periods, hyphens or spaces for phone numbers. Lately, I've been using spaces. (And no parentheses.)
