Significant numbers? Round numbers for sure, but significant? I wonder what Ramanujan would say about this, but he would probably find significance in every single number that is displayed on these boards...

3600 = seconds in an hour
10,000 = the largest round number of posts any of the regulars hit (I think only Gmabit and I have hit that)

10,000 = an African swallow needs to beat its wings 10,000 times every hour in order to maintain air-speed velocity
