Missed the original thread.  My original thought to Alex's response was that he 
was joking.  Then
it occurred to me that there might be some RPG newbies that have never 
encountered the 10000.01 or
100.0001 hacks.  You haven't lived until ...  ;-)

But I also had to add that this hack won't work in free-format, either in the 
extended C-spec or
the /free style because of precision overflow.

Were there any emoticons in Alex's post?  ;-)  :-O  ???
