I refer to it as the Asimov Rule: The most unlikely number in the universe is 
2.

(If you write the same thing a second time, odds are you'll be writing it a 
3rd, 4th, and 97th time, so generalize NOW before you go further.)

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
