      What's scary is that I already know I'm weak in math-fu. :omg:

            Rotate 90 degrees and try again.

            If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack. --Winston Churchill

              I took the sin of that. Got to one. Rotated once. Came to same answer. X|

                I double-checked the data for that study; it doesn't add up.

                Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

                  Unless you think using your feet, it would indeed be in your head. And yes, it helps if you think that you are capable of something. Helps more if you indeed are.
