Just like me - I'll be sitting close by right then.

I once got attacked by a glue-sniffer, insisting that 'it was all about the 1's and the 0's' ' He also claimed to be the 'Voice of the Mysterons'.

Ah, streetlife . . .

Truly enjoyable read. Well done.

Excellent!

And me having studied Binary, too. I'd go computationally figure that out, but I can't be ***** and I trust you anyways . . .

Well done.

I like this! It reminds me of a poem that I adore. The poem's appeal is rooted in the fact that it takes my brain out for a walk every time I read it. This... has that same sort of effect.

Nice done - and welcome to YPDC!
