*GACK*!

After running through a quick bit-shifting test, I discovered
to my chagrine that I was thinking for some dumb reason that
int was 16 bits. This is what I get for working on programming
problems all day long during my leisure time. I heard a rumor
that programming destroys brain cells more quickly than liquor.
Is it true? :)-
