I disagree. 1/(Graham's Number) is interesting, at least as the inverse
of...
Maybe 1/(1+Graham's Number)... or rather 1/(2+Graham's Number), as the
first one is interesting because it is just one of...

In fact, any uninteresting number become interesting as soon as it
answers the query.

Remind me of group's theory: does the repertory of repertories which do
not reference themselves references itself ? and why ?
