For clarification, in my case there will never be more than two decimal points and the data is very precise in that there might be a 305.1 or a 310.10 but there would never be a 305.10 or 310.1 either. While I didn't need the complexity of floating decimals, someone in the future might have a similar-but-different problem where this will be important. The "free tidbit" is always a plus.
