basic addition no problem for guys in my school
we used our fingers for the ones column and keep our zippers down for when we have to carry past 10
arithmetic was fun that way

Tom Lehrer once said that Base 8 is just like Base 10, if you're missing 2 fingers.
I can't go for Base 12 because then you're using A and B as numbers, and I just can't accept that.
Ok here's a question; how many of you use math higher than basic algebra with any regularity? I use geometry a bunch, but nothing much more than that. I guess what i'm getting at is that maybe not everyone needs to know calculus.
You are definitely right 4D although I have a friend whose dream job was to work for Disney or 6Flags and design roller coasters (yes I know) and his dream was crushed because he couldn't pass intro Calc in college....gotta believe very few professions really use Calculus on a regular basis.
