Whoops, I accidentally post a link I had in the clipboard titled "I Like Guns". The "I Like Guns" video, (eg http://tinyurl.com/y98u499 ), is pretty good; although, the guy in the video is a little to gun-ho about guns, even for me. The leafe.com mail list server kept bouncing emails with this link back to me, thus the test email to try and localize what was going on. Anyway, sorry about the cross post. The link I intended to post is below: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function Regards, LelandJ > >> >> --- On Fri, 1/8/10, Leland F.
