 		You know what? I think you are absolutely right. We did make that assumption, and of course you know what happens when you ASS-U-ME! Laughing

Actually I don't, seeing as that makes no sense. Rolling Eyes

I am mathematically challenged it seems. Trying to figure out the bar code using the correct system.

Ok, first set of 6 is the start code. Got it.
Second set is the first two numbers on my card. Got it.
Third set is the next two numbers. Got it.
Fourth set is the next pair of numbers. Got it.
Same for fifth and sixth set of 6....got them.

Now I have one number left. It is a five on my card.

Seventh set of 6 translates to "101/code A".....eh?
Eighth set of 6 translates to "21".
Ninth set of 6 translates to "35".

Tenth set of 6 is the stop code.....got it.

Am I to assume that my "check number" is 213? And why does it interrupt my code? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Using the chart here: http://www.denso-id.cn/download/blog/code128.jpg

"101/Code A" means you switch to the "Code Set A" column for subsequent values. In that column, index 21 = 5, your final ID number. Notice that Code Set C is comprised of double-digit values only, hence the need to switch to the other code set. The next value is your "check digit," which is the weighted sum of the digits preceding it. It should equal this:

105+(first pair of ID numbers)+(2*second pair)+(3*third pair)+(4*fourth pair)+(5*fifth pair)+(6*101)+(7*final number in Code Set A column)

105 is the "Start C" value; 6*101 is due to the "Code Set A" value. Had a slim hope that my check digit of 42 was significant, but your results refute this. Thanks for sharing.

 		So it's not quite 8:20 here in Hawaii. But if we wait 10 min maybe something will happen? Rolling Eyes

On a side note... Lost was being filmed down the street from my house last night at the Rainbow Drive In! All I saw was Hurley and Sayid sitting in a car... then Desmond drove past my house about an hour later. don't think that really tells us much about next season, but it was really cool!

I apologize. Not may. Definitely is. But at least he's updating, unlike a certain hoodlum.

 		OMG!!!!!!!!
Spooky factor off the charts....
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, I just logged on to check, and I got to the part where you choose what kind of recruit you are, clicked "returning" or whatever it says, then, INSTEAD of getting the log in screen, it immediately went to the next screen where you choose progress, etc. TOALLY bypassed the sign in process. So I clicked on the "my profile" button, and shazaaaam! It was me!!!! Whoa!

Incidentally, I *had* logged out the last time, and in fact I shut down Safari since then. So it is recognizing my IP? But whoa, I so wasn't expecting it.

Shocked

Is big brother really watching?????

PS: do we have an IRC chat for this topic? If so, can someone run the URL and room name?

Happened to me several times. And yes, from the unfiction banner, there's #octagon.

And, big brother? More like Big Hoodlum =)
