"Some 'STRANGE' anomalies between Metric and U.S. standard measurements - an Olympic connection?"

 
The attached photo is a U. S. Survey elevation marker on the top of a huge rock about 50 miles east of where I live. The elevation at this point is 7165 feet (2184 meters). The interesting thing about this marker is the triangle (a mountain?) with a horizontal center line representing sea level. This symbol looks just like the 'Genesis 1:1 Pyramid' with the center row number 37 marked off as sea level. The temperature of a healthy human being: 98.6 Fahrenheit equals an even 37 degrees Celsius.
 
I visited this place called 'Dome Rock' in the High Sierras with a Christian friend. He is an automobile and motorcycle enthusiast. While there he brought up the topic of converting cubic centimeters to cubic inches. When I got home I looked up the ratio: 1 cubic inch equals 16.387 cubic centimeters. I discovered that 496 cubic inches equals 8128 (8127.952) cubic centimeters. 496 is the third perfect number and 8128 is the fourth perfect number. 8128 equals the gematria of 'JESUS CHRIST' (2368) + 5760. The Jewish year 5760 spanned the majority of the Gregorian year 2000. Many years ago the Lord led me to number the last days for the Body of Christ from the Winter Solstice of 5760 (21 December 1999).
 
        8128 minus (10 x 496) equals 3168 > a Greek gematria for 'LORD JESUS CHRIST'.
 
8128 is the 127th triangle number. 127 cubic inches equals 2081 cubic centimeters. From 1 January 1996 to 11 September 2001 was 2081 inclusive days.
 
In 2003 General Motors manufactured a vehicle called the 'GMC Sierra' which had a 496 cubic inch V8 engine. 2003 is the last number of the 'Prime List'. The bore of this engine was 4.31 inches > 431 is the north point of the 'Prime  Cross'. Enoch was the first to be taken - he was 365 years old. 2003 + 365 = 2368 > the Greek gematria of 'JESUS CHRIST'.
 
The sum of the four corners of the 'Prime List' equals 3834 (2 x 1917). From the first day of the current 30-year Islamic calendar cycle to 20 January 2001 (Bush's first day in office) was 3834 inclusive days. 3834 / 16.387 = 234 (233.966). 11 September 2001 was the 234th day in office for President Bush.
 
294 is the prime number gematria of 'JESUS'. 294 cubic inches equals 4818 cubic centimeters. 4818 minus 294 equals 4524 which is the circumference of the 'Circle of Time'. Its diameter is the number of minutes in a day (1440). 4524 / 16.387 = 276 (276.072) > the number saved in Paul's shipwreck.
 
Perhaps there may be some kind of connection between these Metric and U.S. standard measurements and the upcoming Olympic games in Beijing.
 
 
P.S.
10 August 2008 will be the '9th of Av'. From the center of the current 19-year Jewish calendar cycle to this '9th of Av' will be 496 inclusive days.
 
On 10 August 2007 my half brother died and was revived seven times. He passed away on 22 November 2007. This was the 44th anniversary of JFK's assassination and it was 'Thanksgiving Day'.
