You know, I've really enjoyed the issues discussed here on precision and how 
to compensate for lack of it; I've worked in environments that require penny 
precision (at most, but hey, it HAD TO BE THERE) but some of the issues 
addressed here could be relevant to me in the future. I enjoy technical 
discussions. They make me think, much more than "How do I convert an int to 
String?"

I hardly think that a dialog covering issues, from people who are aware of 
them, constitutes invalid content.
