»Shuttin' down the power grids«

The Keymaker said that 27 blocks would need to be shutdown to disable the security system. When Trinity is in the power building and she is shutting down the power system she types:
DISABLE GRID NOES 21-48
it comes back and says
WARNING: DISABLING NODES 21-48 WILL DISCONNECT
SECTOR 11 (27 NODES)
ARE YOU SURE (Y/N)

Well or course she says yes, but does anyone else see a mathmatical error here, assuming each block is a grid node, you need 27 nodes disabled which it shows in the parentheses. BUT is says DISABLING NODES 21-48.......THATS 28 NODES! What gives, with all the other mathmatics in this movie I can hardly believe that they would make such a simple mistake.

well done, well spotted
I think this is just a pure and simple 48-21 mistake.

Cool, this would goe on my SNAFU page, if I had one.

That's not really a mistake. Shutting down an extra block or two might be unnecessary, but it couldn't hurt. Moreover, it's hard to say that node=block. Some blocks might share nodes or vice-versa. A node is simply a terminal in a computer network. Therefore if there is some reduncancy in the node to block correspondance shutting down these nodes might be necessary.

Trinity did crack the IRS T-Base (or whatever it was called) so don't argue! LoL.

Nice find anyway.

it doesn't matter how many grids she shut down- how did she know the password?

cause she used nmap. as well as being a port scanner it comes with crackers.

More than you can ever imagine.

Oh and BTW, Nice trick with the counting.

Derren Brown would be proud of you

thank you....i was wondering if someone was gonna catch it, i figured if i spelled school wrong then they would over look the double number....it worked didnt it?
