Figure Numbering

[Bruce Pourciau]

I've looked at the manuals, but cannot find the answer to this  
question: Using the Article class with unnumbered headings and  
subheadings -- it's a relatively short paper, so there's no need to  
number the headings -- the figures come out numbered Figure  0.1,  
Figure 0.2, etc. Can I change this scheme so they are numbered Figure  
1, Figure 2, etc?
