But don't panic. Base eight is just like base ten really — if you're missing two fingers.

"New Math"Tom Lehrer
Base words are uttered only by the base
And can for such at once be understood;
But noble platitudes — ah, there's a case
Where the most careful scrutiny is needed
To tell a voice that's genuinely good
From one that's base but merely has succeeded.Wystan Hugh Auden
The equipment that comes to Armenia from the Russian bases in Georgia goes to the 102nd Russian base in Gyumri. The equipment is delivered to the base in order to replace missing equipment and it is at the Russian side’s disposal. The Armenian side has nothing to do with these weapons.

Irish poets, earn your trade,
Sing whatever is well made,
Scorn the sort now growing up
All out of shape from toe to top,
Their unremembering hearts and heads
Base-born products of base beds.William Butler Yeats
No one can build his security upon the nobleness of another person. Two people, when they love each other, grow alike in their tastes and habits and pride, but their moral natures (whatever we may mean by that canting expression) are never welded. The base one goes on being base, and the noble one noble, to the end.
Willa Cather
According to polls, a majority (around 60+ percent) opposes the radar base. But it's not necessarily the sensible part of the Czech population. The demonstrations against the base are usually organized by communists, Islamists, and "peaceful feminists" (which is fortunately not a numerous group).
