Sounds like we need a few more categories:
- those that think they understand binary but don't?
- those that don't care?
At any rate, I'm pretty sure it goes:
00 = zero
01 = ONE, base ten (the 'normal' system for most people)
10 = TWO, base ten
11 = THREE, base ten
100 = FOUR, base ten
I'm pretty sure that's right. I counted on my nostrils.

"Nutmeg is extremely poisonous if injected intravenously."
I wonder who paid for that study...The Cinnamon Advancement Society ?
