I'm willing to barter crawfish and turqoise from the sante fe trail for something with vitamin C in it 

dan I'm sure you're up to it, you're just being modest I do remember the willow in the lovely back garden. Was hoping we were stopping by nederland in the summer to show off the kiddo to the fam; I guess we're going to have to sail across the pond at this point

I've used and would recommend reactor based patterns for this problem, eg., there's some solutions discussed here -> http://www.artima.com/articles/io_design_patterns2.html

can you set something like -fpe0 -traceback ala intel?

save yourself the hassle of manipulating bits for lack of an unsigned type (therein lies much anguish for C developers) and use bytebuffer

+1 scala; you might also check out functionaljava.org, I've hacked with this. The Sun java langspec is also a good read.
