Nice. For some reason, I was thinking of the & as a character rather than an operator. It's glaringly obvious now.

Base 26, of course. And I only spent an hour or two assuming that A=1.

Remind me to stay away from your subculture.

Hint #06 in this post had been intended to suggest otherwise.

Ha! I did immediately switch to A=0 once you provided us with the alternate "ACHTBI" string. But no, I did not catch that.

I'll lucksack my way through one of these one day.

Ganchrow you win again for now.

You know it's talk like that inspires certain unsavory forum elements to send me hate mail.
