I wish we had 12 digits - base 12 is *so* much better than base 10.

If we had 12 digits, we'd probably have 12 fingers as well.
That's 20% faster typing we had 20% more software for the QL
That is what I was saying - 'digits' means both fingers and thumbs in
English. We usually say (incorrectly) that we have five fingers on each
hand. We don't. We have four fingers and one thumb!
