   YEp, knew about the divisible by four part, just hadn't   
   played with that in the code that runs Feb 1 yet.  Would   
   like to see that other formula when you find it.  I'm sure   
   we could plug it in.  TImo's batch calculator does some   
   interesting things.   
      
   Think I'd heard of the other one too, but was thinking about the divisible by   
   4 bit, just hadn't implemented that one   
   .
