    Thank you Jim (the usual no points available)? - - - still?

    I must bring Scott Adams quote to task, as the creator is not restricted to base 10 counting - the interpretors of the "Bible" use base 10 but the values use 64 (a binary value), 144 - a "bakers"? value (12 dozen) "1 day is as 1000 years" (at 1024 rounded is binary, or a quantum leap beyond the capacity of "primitive mankind" to comprehend, (a very big number?), 144000 is also used and is a very unusual base line? so I have found binary, and shorthand variations (octal & hexadecimal) base 12 & variations of what ever ones mind can conjure up in determining "mysterious ways"... :p:D
