SLOGANOFEMPIRES, a load of superstitious poppycock in my opinion. In Italy they are superstitious of the number 17 and don't have door numbers etc with 17 on them

Player #96919, I believe women dont want to give birth on the 4th of the month. And they DO want their baby to arrive on the 8th because it is thought to be lucky. I recall hearing lots of pregnant women had elective Caesarians on the 8th August 1988 and many on 8th August 2008.

While you are unlikely to see a Chinese driving a car with a few '4' s on the plate : you can pretty much guarantee they'll be behind the wheel if the number-plate features a few lucky '8's
