Perhaps they are not allowed because Koch had 9INCHDK and Giuliani got 10INCHDK to upstage him? And, what about centimeters? 23CMDK is ok, plus you attract those exotic, metric-using foreigners! I'd opt for 9999INDK or possibly 9999MIDK -King of the Road, indeed. Ok, my favorite thing: 9INCHDK and 10INCHDK are not allowed: however, 1 through 8 and anything 11 to 99 is just dandy?

They missed some alternate spellings, though (4nic8 seems to be allowed, for example, even though they went through tons of variations there.) What are all those short numbers? Are they bus lines or something, and are they afraid people would get confused? Someone must have had so much fun making this list.

They also have a problem with ##C, ##S, and ##JNY. The J may be for Justice.
