Had a rather... cryptic conversation with a colleague the other week.

Colleague: *looking at size of badmail on exchange* It's all stuff that should never have got to us.
Me: How do you mean?
Colleague: Well, it's electronic data, isn't it? And sometimes it passes us by.
Me: *laughs, thinking he's messing*
Colleague: *indignant* No, but it is! It's all noughts and ones.

Thought it best to just leave the room, quietly, at this point. Sometimes there are conversations it's just best not to persue.

sounds like he's the type that wouldn't get the "10 people in the world" joke either...

Those who understand trinary
Those who don't
Those who confuse it with binary

Methinks he's been watching Sneakers too much.

To quote:

Cosmo: The world isn't run by weapons anymore, or energy, or money. It's run by little ones and zeroes, little bits of data. It's all just electrons.
