Hey DR HOUSE:
I really enjoyed reading what you found.
I worked with some programmers who were able to make the test
message (QBF) shorter by using other words.
I pointed out to them: "that's nice - but it doesn't make any sense!".
Sure, - your sentence is shorter than the QBF - but so would be typing
just the alphabet.
Again, thanx for the URL.
UE,
W6ESE - tony
NNNN
