lol. You identified the problem. That's happening b/c the number of bits necessary to store the number I've assigned to those 2 slots exceeds what PHP allows by default. I have to study their documentation to see if there's a way around that. If there is, I'll share it. If there isn't, I'll kill this thread with a big warning. I had used this method on some guy's site a couple of years back - I bet he's really screwed since he ticked me off and I stopped working with him. lol.
EDIT:
Just found

The size of an integer is platform-dependent, although a maximum value of about two billion is the usual value (that's 32 bits signed). PHP does not support unsigned integers. Integer size can be determined from PHP_INT_SIZE, maximum value from PHP_INT_MAX since PHP 4.4.0 and PHP 5.0.5.

from
PHP: Integers - Manual . I guess that means I'll need to look at
PHP: GMP Functions - Manual . As this stands now, I'll not be updating this thread for this methodology as implementing GMP will take some time to study it that I just do not have. Anyone who has the time is welcome to pickup this thread and continue the lesson - I have all the code which was to be used in composing this and will be happy to help as time allows.
