Reply 5@rik - When I first read your suggestion I thought it was spam, until I saw you posted it and I had to re-read it.
@jedmeister - I like it, but it's 187 characters!
Did anyone figure out my suggestion? (those are not random 1's and 0's).

Reply 6Ok, this time I counted the characters and there's definately 160 (exactly):
