OOPS! I did it again. Sorry, in my previous posting there is at

nights seems dangerous all across the network:

At first impression, looks like old-style Forth ("you can do it with integers")
is striking back. Happily enough, it seems the intention was "be done in
double precision", a much saner proposition. (If this interpretation is another
effect of the time of the day, please correct me).
Ok, time to sleep, get away from the keyboards ...
