What?  No takers?

What's the matter?  Floating point numbers are not impressive enough to
your digital savoir-faire?

Floating point numbers make the computing world go around.  Nothing could
be done without them, from calculating a flight to Mars to balancing
grandma's check book.

What's the matter?  Y'all a bunch of Object Oriented a$$wipes that have
never experienced the real machine?  Y'all a bunch of hardware virgins?

Does the expression "Branch On Carry Clear" have any significance to y'all?

Ha, ha!  Y'all couldn't construct a 2's complement to save grandma from
being sold to the Arabs!

Catastrophic cancellation would bite your lame asses and no dick head
in the OO department would ever suspect the least.
