Ouch. That could get to be expensive, if you're repetively evaluating
them. Part of what I'm using them for is some predicate logic in a
simulator which evaluates many possible futures every time cycle.
String comparisons is something I want to categorically avoid.

As for the other posters, thanks again! That's just what I wanted.
