It's all true

We all know and have read the book by Dan Brown called The Da Vinci Code, so I will not resume it here, only the fact that it turns out there is a plan, a design, behind the universe and everything. It's called PHI, the golden number.
As you all know, Phi can be found anywhere - and by anywhere I mean absolutely anywhere. In the human body, in nature, music, colours and physics, to name a few. Even George Clooney is made of Phi relations. It's scary.
Phi is linked to the Fibonacci numbers (1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34....), and if you divide two Fibonacci numbers, you get Phi.
But the big question - and by big I absolutely mean BIG - is, who designed the whole damned thing? God? Moses? The designer from Hell? A fish? An alien from outer space?
There is a nice Flash animation of the Fibonacci numbers and the golden section here.
