I shall not die alone, alone, but kin to all the powers,
As merry as the ancient sun and fighting like the flowers.

No, a nerd would point out that there haven't been any truly "binary" days since 11/11/1111 . . .

So Thursday was 3E?

Somehow, 76 makes more sense.

Two weeks ago I almost bought a calculator with a base 5 (pental) system on it.  Not for that, but the other features.  Found cheaper one, though, sans pental.

Couldn't figure out what a radix of 5 would be for, so I Gurgled it, but my Gurgle-fu is really bad.

Best thing I could think of was it was either for people with abacuses or only one hand.
