Jeff, How long have you been around here? You've missed the point...

The martian math is extremely relavent. See PIC's don't have any built in
math functions. So this discussion maps up well with stuff like binary to
BCD/ASCII conversion, fixed point math, trig functions, and whatnot.

You sir haven't seen the SPAM the list really has had. SPAM like the
knucklehead that kept sending the magazine subscription service every
other week.

See if this discussion were really spam, then folks like Andrew (who is
one of the MAJOR MAJOR contributors to this list) would be participating.

You'll see. You'll need a PIC to convert trinary values into a BCD number.
Then you'll be wondering where the hell that Martian Math thread, which
is precisely what you need, went....

You picked the wrong thread to start a SPAM discussion on. Wait for a real
one, then go after them...
