True.  But ultimately, I'm going to generate a lookup chart
(dynamically generated as needed or pre-generated based on observation,
either way) to make my code as efficient as possible.

to give that a shot when I get home on Friday.

I found something summarizing some of the behavior (and the odd fringe
that can appear on the left side...)
