Sure someone could :)
Yet another idea which looks simple enough to hopefully work perfectly:
checksum[n] = data[n-1] xor data[n]
And if it does work, I'm sure it's some widely known algorithm that I've
just never heard of.. :)
It also just occured to me that this provides easy detection of
corrupted data if system crashes or whatever.
