Has it been noted yet that the octothorpe/hash isn't used over this side of The Pond for "number/no."?
Starting to be used now, still rarely, but certainly when I was reading imported comic books in my youth (sigh) the octothorpe threw me a bit. Along with "zip codes" of course.
So why's that, then?
