I was getting 12C. The person I was arguing with told me, after a little more discussion, (for some inexplicable reason) she was using base 15

Better still...I was using it the other day at work...and one of my coworkers saw me using the keypad on my keyboard to punch in numbers...and she said "HOLY COW! I never knew you could do that!"

She is a CPA, however. They never use ANYTHING but tape calculators.
In fact, if you wanna get your @ss kicked REAL quick...screw with an accountant's calculator. :Q

I've seen plenty of accountants. I dunno about the word "kicked". I might grant you "screwed over", but definitely not "kicked".

Well, the heaviest thing an accountant lifts is a calculator. A computer geek at least lifts a case and monitors every now and then.

*for the record, I spent all summer mixing concrete. Hear me ROOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRR.
