Since I obviously couldn't get any of the old nerds to come out and play, here's the answer: Those letters were the designations of 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 from the original sexidecimal notation (as it was called) which were used with the first computers! Now it's called hexidecimal and uses the letters ABCDEF instead. The original KSNJFL goes back to the Bardot Code (before ASCII). Now you know. 😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigb Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Why, what, who? Why doesn't Tarzan have a beard when he lives in the jungle without a razor? Why do we press harder on a remote control when we know the batteries are flat? Why do banks charge a fee on 'insufficient funds' when they know there is not enough? Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets? Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but check when you say the paint is wet? Whose idea was it to put an 'S' in the word 'lisp'? What is the speed of darkness? Why is it that people say they 'slept like a baby' when babies wake up every two hours? If the temperature is zero outside today and it's going to be twice as cold tomorrow, how cold will it be? Do married people live longer than single ones or does it only seem longer? How is it that we put man on the moon before we figured out it would be a good idea to put wheels on luggage? Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground? Did you ever stop and wonder... Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, 'I think I'll squeeze these pink dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out?' Who was the first person to say, 'See that chicken there... I'm gonna eat the next thing that comes outta it's bum.' Why do toasters always have a setting so high that could burn the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat? Why is there a light in the fridge and not in the freezer? Why do people point to their wrist when asking for the time, but don't point to their bum when they ask where the bathroom is? Why does your Gynecologists leave the room when you get undressed if they are going to look up there anyway? Why does Goofy stand erect while Pluto remains on all fours? They're both dogs! If quizzes are quizzical, what are tests? If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, then what is baby oil made from? If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons? Why do the Alphabet song and Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star have the same tune? Stop singing and read on... Did you ever notice that when you blow in a dog's face, he gets mad at you, but when you take him on a car ride, he sticks his head out the window? Does pushing the elevator button more than once make it arrive faster? Do you ever wonder why you spend so much time in this Coffee House? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigb Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Actually, the one that always makes me wonder involves those toads that are psychedelic when licked. SOMEONE had to be first to try it and that's more than a little disturbing! LOL! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that brings us to the either Aztecs or Mayan's: One of their rituals involves a hallucinogentic that requires it has to be broken down by another substance before the body can absorb it. So they have to mix it with another plant before it gets them in a "Spiritual" state. Ya gotta wonder how many it took down before they got the formula right!!
