OOPS... I forgot that as your number goes up, the number of leading zeroes
go down.
So it wouldn't be 4000 extra zeroes, only a few till you get to 100 and
then no more.
No wonder I never win these things.  :-)
But by the same token, how about eliminating the useless 599? Since this
would be saved both transmitting and receiving, now you're talking some
real savings.
