    I hope you voted on the imperial thread?

                Is a Night Scourer any better than a Day Scrubber?

                  And does "110110" win any prizes?

                    Or "110111"?

                    Or must we wait the extra 16 posts to get to "111111"?

                      If taken from decimal into binary (as a transliteration of the symbols from one semantic interpretation to another, rather than a conversion of the number from one base to another) and then back into hex (this time by a conversion from one base to another) the symbolic representation thereof becomes 0x36 (the notation "0xdd..." is a conventional form which denotes a hexadecimal representation of the actual value).

                      Which becomes 0x37 (by the process described above)

                      Which would be 0x3F

                      But only by the aforementioned process, which involves an intertwingling of conversions of semantic forms and the numerical values that such forms may, almost (though not quite) arbitrarily, be chosen to be representative of.
