More Republican "jokes" in OHIO

[RaulVB]

I know a little about binary codes so, here I go.

You can attach numbers to letters playing a funny game, it's really hilarious...

1 would be "a", 2 is "b", 3 is "c"...you get the idea.

In Gahanna county OHIO, 3893 votes were "given" to Bush.

3893...you understand, right:

3 : "c"
8 : "h"
9 : "i"
3 : "c"

Hell yes..."CHIC"

Unbelievable!

2. Binary:

Code used in digital computers, based on a binary number system in which there are only two possible states, off and on, usually symbolized by 0 and 1. Whereas in a decimal system, which employs 10 digits, each digit position represents a power of 10 (100, 1,000, etc.), in a binary system each digit position represents a power of 2 (4, 8, 16, etc.). A binary code signal is a series of electrical pulses that represent numbers, characters, and operations to be performed. A device called a clock sends out regular pulses, and components such as transistors switch on (1) or off (0) to pass or block the pulses. In binary code, each decimal number (0-9) is represented by a set of four binary digits, or bits. The four fundamental arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division) can all be reduced to combinations of fundamental Boolean algebraic operations (see Boolean algebra) on binary numbers.

3. I said I know just a little...

No, thanks for the info but I was pointing to a game we used to play in my country when I was young.

You can create a basic "secret" code if you assign numbers to alphabet letters in order starting with the number 1 and the letter "a", that simple.

3893 will read "chic" itself.

4. What is "chic"

Are the Bushies now fans of the French?

[RaulVB]

5. Remember?

Kerry "is French looking"?
