    468- Year 468 (CDLXVIII) was a leap year starting on Monday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Anthemius without colleague. The denomination 468 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

    Not a clue what that means though... ;)

    Alternatively, 468 is a popular London Bus Route ;)

    471 - ATIC 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase/IMP cyclohydrolase is Gene No 471 on the NCBI registered list of genes and mapped phenotypes. This gene encodes a bifunctional protein that catalyzes the last two steps of the de novo purine biosynthetic pathway. The N-terminal domain has phosphoribosylaminoimidazolecarboxamide formyltransferase activity, and the C-terminal domain has IMP cyclohydrolase activity. A mutation in this gene results in AICA-ribosiduria.

    No, I haven't a clue what it mean either.

    473 Is a real landmark. The great Dixie Dean scored an unbelievable 473 goals in 502 first class appearances which actually included 37 hatricks for Everton !!

    Just how much would he be worth today?

    Fact- in 2008 there were 474 deaths attrbuted to H1N1 swine flu. Co-incidentally, exactly the number of motorcycle fatalities in the same year. I kid you not.
