Nope. not 142 or 144 either.
(so lets mark 122, 130, 141, 142,144 off the list.)

i was about to say the answer,but i've seen it before, my college professor gave it to us a spot quiz once...i don't think it's something everyone is going to get...

Yeah. I agree 100%. Even after I found out the answer it took me a while to figure out the solution..... It's a real brain-math-twister!. The "rocket scientists" I work with even have problems with it. We've got it up on the whiteboard in the lab for people to solve.
You're in Sunnyvale? I used to work out there a several years ago!.

yeah work as an electronic engineer, which is how i saw this first, it's a few years since i finished college, but this brought back memories...
Ok...this has been bugging me all day...the more so because I'm not hugely mathematically inclined.
They're all the number 16, right?
In base 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, and 3....
which mean the one missing is 1 0000?

Think we cross-posted...you haven't excluded my answer...is it wrong? Or am I invisible?
If I am wrong, I have no idea what the answer is

140. That's my final offer.

alieight:
yup. We must have cross posted each other.
We got a WINNER!!!! 10000 is the next number!!!!!
youre note of "They're all the number 16" is correct.
If someone didn't get it, I was going to put the "hint" up that they "were all the same number" and see if that helped.
It's still a tough one though, especially if you think in the same integer base. It kicked my butt for a long time.
cool.
who's got the next one to solve? (good job BTW!)
