That should give you quite a few bits of precision. Remember that integers are expressed exactly in floating point. BTW, flame on for this and other subject titles. I guess your news software just tacks on `Re: ' to the front of your titles & throws you into vi? This the once a title of a discussion once dear to my heart that turned sour.
