  • oh man that is so cool. People who can do math are geniuses in my book. I'm not great at it, but I'm relearning everything.

  • Thanks. We need more like this.

  • how about the square root of, 30*D*Fadj ??

  • "pretty close" could mean the difference between 'speeding' and 'obeying the law'. Or, 'guilty' and 'not guilty' your honor. I'd hate to be a defendant in a case using your math!
