There are only 10 types of people in the world:
Those who understand binary and those who don't.
Now that Halloween is arriving, I'm reminded of a timely little joke:
Q. Why do Computer Scientists and Mathematicians always get Christmas and Halloween confused?
A. Because DEC 25 = OCT 31.
BOO! (hiss...groan...)

The only person I've ever got to laugh at that joke was a college instructor of mine (he had a great sense of humor, obviously)....if you don't get it, the joke is that 25 in base ten (DECimal) is the same as 31 in base eight (OCTal). ha. ha.
i still dont get it.
