I'm guessing it's an overflow problem, because it varies depending on 
the numbers used. For example, if the number on the left is 1, the 
comparison fails only if the number on the right is greater than 308. 
Increasing the number on the left decreases the critical number on 
the right.

Yeesh. It looks like all three of us are on Macs. Has anyone tried 
this on an Intel chip and/or Windows?
