1. Most natural curve you'll ever find.
My brother and I used it in the tabletop RPG we were developing because we thought that the D20 'add 1 for every 2 stat points' thing was kinda stupid and led to ridiculously overpowered characters who depended on their stats rather than their skills.

2. Ah, the foccacia series
The numbers represent the rate of savory goodness that increases with each bite when eating an especially fine piece of foccacia.

1584+4181=6765

Etc.  I forget the name of the series, but I believe it was an
Italian name.
