Therefore you have to multiply by the conjugate, though that's perhaps a bit risque for a "family program." ;) > And my parents said a math degree wouldn't be useful! They should have said it wouldn't profit you. ;) Oh -- "Linux." Now this post is flame-retardant. -- I used to like HP before computers, and once I even liked Compaq, but I liked DEC better than HP and Compaq put together.
