Since I posted, requesting those wishing to come on the unofficial to e-mail
me, I have only had two responses. Thanks 'Simon I' and 'Rich B'. Do I
assume that this is the total interest? If so is it worth bothering with?

Course it is, Graham. It's just that you've got quality rather than
quantity.

Come on, guys!

I'm provisionally interested again, as with the last unofficial,

but i was hanging back from putting my name down as i didnt want to
get in trouble if i cant make it in the end :(
 
I understand binary and drive a land rover. What does that make me?

I'm interested, just can't be certain what's going to be happening with
work then - could be out of the country. Given the last two contracts I
might not know for certain until the Monday before.

Sorry, I misread it. I thought it was only some specific aspect that you
wanted email on. I'm up for it, finances permitting.

Can I remind you of the calendar feature of Smartgroups, where I set up an
AFLR group?

Mind, SG has been broken, but I think it may be fixed now. If you're not a
member, then I need an email address that you can receive email to. Any of
the members can invite others.

It'll then issue notifications by email when you add a calendar event, and
will also notify if the event gets changed, provided you set the event
correctly, I think.

We seem to have 8 members so far. what's happened to the rest of you?


Note, although the group has a message-list system, I *don't* intend that
this should replace AFL! The idea is to be able to use the calendar and
other things like picture album space (although the latter is quite limited,
so don't post huge files!)

If some bright spark can provide an automatic email-to-news link, the SF
thing could post to the newsgroup, as well - if we thought that was a good
idea...

Count us in Graham, sorry we misread it too - thought it was numbers for

Sorry, my UK excursion has been put back a few months, so as much as I'd

Everyone understands binary in our game! We use it to make up relevant smoke sensor addresses. Now, we
can be sore arses can't we??

LR products are truly awful in parts & truly brilliant in others. Nothing on this planet is perfect i
fear. (apart from me ffs)

The one reason i HATE Jap fast cars is the lack of driver involvement, that is, until i drove the WRX.
Modern Cosworth with good road & track manners. Not up to an EVO, but the most reliable car ever for me!!
The worst, the new BMW Mini Cooper S i had for 5 months. Utter ****e, with a shocking 36 working days out
of 5 months of owner**** in the garage!

The funny bit was, as a very big fella, i fit into it a treat & it did get some very attractive ladies
eyes!!

Understand binary = smart arse
Drive a Land Rover = sore arse.
Crude attempt at humour.

(Anyone remember those German Arsecons that went round a while back?)

Is this the right room for an argument?

Thats it!! outside!

Binary is really easy btw.

1.2.4.8.16.32.64.128.256. ad.inf - all numbers are made from binary in the end.

Now if yopu really want to learn binary, learn it with swithces that arent numbered in the dark!

OK, hold my coat, someone! That isn't binary, it's an exponential sequence
of decimal numbers :) You're thinking of 1, 10, 100, 1000 etc. <smashes
bottle on nearby wall> Come on then, have a go...

YOU big fecking puff!!! Fighting with bottles at your age. Of course it's binary you shandy drinking
chocolate chimney sweep!!!

Binary is expressed in that way regardless of the name any folk want to give it. How would you describe
binary then? I know my binary mate, you, on the other hand are rubbish at virtual fighting!

An example below thank you Mr know-it-all!!

110100 - is in fact 11 & i am right you are a great big rubbish fighter!

Test - what is this number then - 011011

The binary king of of AFL! (self appointed!)

Akshually, Binary is usally expressed like decimal

so its written formally as
2^7 2^6 2^5 2^4 2^3 2^2 2^1 2^0

like decimal is written
10^3 10^2 10^1 10^0

so you write one thousand as 1000 amd NOT 0001
and 256 as 100000000B NOT 000000001

Your example, by convention, reads 27 Decimal, or 1B in hexadecimal, 33
in Octal.

Right, this is serious, you shirt-lifting bastard son of a five-shilling
clap-ridden tart! It isn't binary, cos binary numbers are only written
using 1 and 0. If a number uses the digits 2-9 it is in decimal notation.
To be precise, if there are six apples, this can be expressed as 6 (decimal
notation) or 110 (binary). Your number sequence is in decimal notation.
