Can someone own a set of numbers? I assumed that they were assigned and not owned, however that could just be semantics.

  There are even "illegal" numbers.

    Being surprised or upset that there are "illegal numbers" is like being upset that there are illegal configurations of matter and energy. "It's not murder, it's just a configuration of atoms!" doesn't fly.

      If you believe the universe is discrete, this becomes stronger than a mere analogy - configurations of matter and energy are in fact numbers.

  The ABA claims ownership of all banks' routing numbers, but that has yet to be validated in any meaningful capacity. http://www.gregthatcher.com/Financial/LawyerProblems.aspx http://www.gregthatcher.com/Financial/LawyerProblems.aspx
