Haha, discworld rules!
Look at it this way: Computers work by thousands of circuits that are turned on and off-like a flag in click. If a certain combination of these are on, do this, etc. With a flag, there are only 2 settings, on, or off. 1, or 0. Hence Binary.

The original topic of this seems to just get stupider each time I read it.
So in conclusion: Karl, I recommend that you beat your (ex-)friend round the head with any reasonably heavy computer science textbook.
