I am quite sure the 8 was unlucky somewhere, too. China?
No, probably India
Eight in Chinese sounds like "prosperity" or "wealth", so it is an auspicious number. Four in turn is an unlucky number since it sounds like "death."
Yeah the elevators in my apartment here in Xiamen skip 13 and 14.
Why are the numbers listed in increasing order from the top? What country does that? It looks like you're going underground?
Because I'm a dummy
