Hello Tim,
Then again a SW engineer once told me that nothing is truly analog.
There is always that smallest digital step, the quantum.
So, digital is base two, and analog is base 1.6 x 10^19? ;-)
Still, the digital guys kept telling us "Some day we'll get there and
then you are going to be extinct". I am not worried at all...
Regards, Joerg
