On approximately 5/20/2008 1:44 PM, came the following characters from 
the keyboard of Glenn Linderman:

I should point out that I am aware of the old 6-bit encoding, that was 
used to squeeze more characters into memory that was comprised of 36-bit 
words.  That same architecture also supported a 9-bit encoding. And I'm 
aware of packed decimal as used by Cobol.

I didn't mention them in my main posting, because they are very, very 
special cases, or are not 8-bit byte oriented, which nearly all modern 
architectures are (for data paths, at least).
