And if I ever go insane (well, more so than usual) and decide to make another agent pair, I might just do a DIAU one. Then again, I am the one with RC 404, which just goes to show how much of a computer/internet geek I am.
I was looking at the list of RC numbers and noticed that the Antigravity Apple's office is the only room on the list with a negative number, probably because it defies the normal direction of things. My agents will be the first to have an established RC in the Department of Improbable AUs, and it occurred to me that maybe all rooms in DIAU have negative numbers because of the Antigravity Apple's influence. I was wondering if anyone has any objection to me saying this. It doesn't mean that other departments in HQ can't have negative numbers, just that all DIAU rooms do.
Of course, this may never matter, because I don't know if there will ever be another DIAU agent. *sigh*
After all, it just shows hopw nonsensical is HQ.
In my case, 1587 is the engine displacement in cubic centimeters of one of my favourite cars, the Toyota Sprinter Trueno, also called Corolla GT-S.
No points for guessing from what does Agent Corolla takes her name from. Hint: in her home continuum there is a lot of Car Theme Naming.

There's not much rhyme or reason to the RC numbers, but there are some pretty odd ones out there, so why not have DIAU get the negatives?
'course, my math-loving self wants to say you should be using complex numbers with nonzero imaginary components :)
As a self-confessed math geek, I approve of RCs being given complex numbers! (and I think it'd be especially appropriate for the DIAU)
Then we'd have to change the Antigravity Apple's room number, wouldn't we? Otherwise, I'd say definitely. Maybe we could say it's either negative OR imaginary numbers? Or maybe the AA's room is plain negative, and the rest of us are all square roots of negative numbers.
Also, FYI, there is a response center numbered i.
could have RC 9.88i^2 (forgetting how to do a superscript in html since it's been a while since I did any html coding... xml is another story!).
I know it's not the most simplified form, but scores bonus geek points?

I won't get in trouble for changing the way we write the number, will I? I don't know who made up the number for it, so I can't ask them.
So shall we say that all DIAU numbers have i in them? I think that makes sense. The rest of you, meanwhile, need to add some negative real numbers to the list.
