The octothorpe ('#') marks the beginning of a comment if it is the first 
character in a taken.  Quote it in some fashion (e.g. \#171379, '#171379', 
or "#171379") to avoid treating the rest of the physical line as a 
comment.

I think bash also has a feature to turn off "interactive comments" if you 
don't use them.  I do.
