This started as a test script while I was learning about bit operations, and it slowly evolved into an obfuscated JAPH. I know it exceeds the traditional "4 line rule", but I thought that it would be fun to limit the digits used to only 0 and 1, given the theme. It was not golfed in any way.

Enjoy!

Hint: the bit shifts are fun, but they aren't the main point of the obfuscation.

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
