509?? (Re: Max line length)

[Blair P. Houghton]

John Carr and Doug Gwyn both quoted the pANS as requiring compilers to
accept at least 509 chars of logical line...

Huh???

Do X3J11 do their discussing ain between trips to the 7-11 to buy
lottery tickets or something?

Did they hit the trifecta at Rosemont betting 5-0-9? (probably required
themselves to box...:-)
