How many seeds in a pomegranate?

I have heard that pomegranates all have the same number of seeds. Anyone have this info? In Australia, we call Brits Pommies. But I don't think that has anything to do with this question.
Anyway - POME # of seeds. Please. Anyone?

Well, it's name is from the latin for 'Apple with fucking loads of seeds'

(Jewish folklore says 613 seeds, but I don't think they all do have the same number of seeds)

"Pardon my French!"

But for real, my friend's grandmother is in the production of "The Color of Pomegranates" -- hot Russian women have how many g-seeds?

My sister once counted to see if there were indeed 613 seeds. There were far fewer. This could be a sign from god that actually one only need keep c300 commandments. If one is into keeping commandments, that is.

Here's a cool story from Judaism (although this telling is from a Christian sermon) involving a pomegrante, just because it's vaguely related and I dig it...

"...a man who was caught stealing and about to hanged. On his way to the gallows he told the governor that he knew a wonderful secret and it would a pity to allow it to die with him, and he would like to disclose it to the king. He would put the seed of a pomegranate in the ground and through the secret taught him by his father he would make it grow and bear fruit overnight. This intrigued the governor, who told the king, and the next day the king and all the high officers of state came to the place where the thief was waiting. He dug a hole and said, “This seed must be only put in the ground by someone who has never stolen or taken anything that didn’t belong to them. I, being a thief, can not do it.” So he turned to the king’s chief of staff who admitted that in his youth he had indeed taken something not his own. The treasurer admitted that he, too, may have hedged things a little here and there, and even the king allowed as to how he had once kept a necklace of his father’s. The thief then said to them, “You are all mighty and powerful and want nothing, and yet you cannot plant the seed, while I who have stolen a little because I was starving am to be hanged.” The king, pleased with the ruse of the thief, pardoned him."

No, then the thief cut the King's throat, and that of the chief of staff and treasurer, and became King himself. And didn't pay attention to thieves with fanciful stories about fruit.
