Yes Chris.
Convert the alphabet into Murray code then binary, and everything then 
appears as 0 and 1 in its simplest form.

Dear Mal and others,


> Come on Jim, learn the Murray code.


Prof. Tony Brooker, who wrote the first compiler compiler and later became 
Essex University's first Professor of Computing, once told me that he used 
to use Murray's code in his early days. Not on the radio, but for 
programming, sometimes in absolute binary. He commented that you got to know 
that if, for instance, the character was a an inverted comma and you wanted 
to set bit 4 then it became a digit 7 (or a letter U, at taste).

They didn't eat quiche in those days.
