He did use an obscure numbering system, and I'm quite
disappointed that you didn't manage to spot it immediately.
(I did.)

It's a true techy-nerd numbering system, so of course I
spotted it immediately too.

Heh. "You know you've been working with computers too long when..."
  ....Someone numbers things in octal, and you don't even notice it as
      being anything out of the ordinary..."

I may be playing with that a bit in the future, though.

I noticed it was octal.  I think I first saw it later in the same day somebody
pointed out to me that Compuserve numbers are octal.  I hadn't noticed that
before.

Doh!  Wow -- I noticed that the numbers were all made of digits and
sequential; if I noticed at all that 8 and 9 were missing, I figured
it was a typo.

Re 30: I'm going to enter an Agora item some time this week to talk
about it....  :)

BTW - impressively subtle, Scott.  Cool!
