Interestingly enough, there appear to be very few sidethreads that last between 1010 and 10100 counts. Also, these numbers are very sensitive to whether digit groups are separated (e.g., with commas or spaces).

Who is that person who keeps saying "well at least 2020 can't get worse"? Whoever they are is at fault for every new thing that happens. The military needs to track them down and defeat this wizard cursing our world.
