Having been a driver for 25 years, I can't wait for self driving cars. I detest driving, drivers, cars, having to remain sober and the intense boredom of driving in general.
I don't care if they only go at 25 miles per hours, crash occasionally, stop for no reason for several hours or annnoy other road users.
Most people I know disagree with this point of view, but they are generally simpletons who watch "Top Gear" by choice, so can be safely ignored.
Get on with it Google.
This is just speculation of course, but what it the problem relates to Excel compressing the cell values to 16 bit integers where possible to keep the memory requirements down? This would fit in with the 2007's expansion beyond the 65,535 row limit. In other words it may not be a maths problem but a flaw in the compression code.
