bmonk,
Since you're technicaly ineligable, I'll fall back on the Roman standby and offer "Homonym of 6"
Spoiler! :
CIX sounds like six


PS: I'd somewhat given up on this, since you, I and occasionally Mike seem to be the only ones bothering.

Yep, but we're a long way from infinity, and we can always hope others join in before we get there.

To continue the six theme:

The digits of six, in the base two, as read in base ten.

The smallest three digit palindrome.

EDIT: It's the 2nd smallest. That probably puts it up for grabs again.
