ah, only if the y axis is a measure of achievement or knowledge 
gained/attained at a particular time, if however it shows the cumulative 
effort expended then it makes sense, alternatively one can interpret the 
graph as having an unspoken but assumed z axix of expertise thus leading to a 
steeper effort versus time graph for any given level of guru'ness.

my problem is that my curve appears to be exactly that - a curve- and not a 
slowly levelling out one either, in fact i'd be willing to bet it's 
asymptotic!

i clearly have too much time on my hands, perhaps i should lie down ;-)
