Wow! 57 chars. That's incredible. I don't want you to just show it to me right away though; I'd like some time to try to figure it out. Can't work on it right away but I plan on it. I would indeed like to see them, please!

I did have an idea on how to make my floor-logarithm regexes much shorter. It did a little worse than the technique I already used, and frankly I'm very happy about that. The one I'd already used is much more interesting, and the one I just now tried would trivialize it if it did better.

And I'm also quite impressed to see that 76-57=19, a smaller difference than my 93-69=24.
