Thomas the Tank Engine II: or how 208 = 80


At the following link you can see the edit history of the wikipedia article for Salty the Diesel Engine, a minor character in the Thomas the Tank Engine series.

Salty's article was created as a 'stub' on 15 Oct. 2004 by 66.185.84.208; an attempt was made to redirect it to the main Thomas the Tank Engine page, a couple hours later. Within a day, the original editor returned and undid the redirect.

It is hard to avoid the conclusion that an editor who uses 66.185.84.208 might sometimes use 66.185.84.80.
