Those who can count in binary; 10. Those who can’t.
It sure is a fun sig line concept, but you’re the 10th user of it in
this forum/newsgroup. I thought Graeme’s version was funnier, earlier
and closer to the original (it’s found in many places on the www).

Hmm, frustratingly a Google search shows that you’re right.
I hadn’t noticed Graeme’s use of it - I swiped it from someone in
comp.databases.pick.
I shall have to change it then, sometime when I haven’t got an armful of
wriggling baby trying to play with my keyboard and mouse.

That’s right.

No, different bins. I wouldn’t be able to see anything wearing Catherine’s,
they’re not strong enough.

Right. The 500g (17.65 oz) jar costs GBP3.70 (US$5.73 ). The 57g (2 oz)
jar costs 68p (US$1.05). Catherine didn’t make a note of the prices of the
intermediate sizes.
So, considerably better VFM than your US$5.00+ for a 4.4oz jar.
Obuni - the September issue of Cycling Plus has an article explaining why
Marmite is good for cyclists. Start looking out for it in US shops sometime
in October, I expect. I don’t think the article’s available online.
