    You're a mathematician huh? I'm allergic to numbers. If my life depended upon figuring out a LONG equation within 10 minutes' time...I'd be a goner. :-p

    Hi Todd:
    i was just responding to your earlier question about rottweilers...i thought a better idea to leave it here, rather than in the thread, risking hijack/dilution of OP...
    so here we are:

    [quote=tdvance]you mean, you've never heard of a vicious rottweiler? Kid in Charlottesville was killed by one that escaped his owner's yard when I was in grad school there.[/quote

    Todd, I am sorry to hear that you had such an awful incident in your neighbourhood, with a rottweiler. Really tragic for the family and everyone else involved. Awful awful.

    There have been umpteen cases of vicious rottweilers over a long period of time, one would imagine.

    I reckon much expression of such inappropriate reaction / behaviour from such a pet / dog, depends on how the owners have interacted with it / them. that old saw...garbage in, garbage out...holds true.

    I have seen owners hitting their dogs; shouting at them; yanking them; generally treating them badly. They should not be allowed to have pets. Period.
    Makes me wonder how they are with children!

    Lullie is the gentlest creature I know. She just happens to have a body that looks like a dog's. She has lots and lots of friends in the park/s where we go. Funnily enough she uses proportionality
    -- playfulness --approach-wise--when bumping into her friends and or strangers. She'd be gentler with smaller and more boisterous with larger friends. lovely to see.

    oh i could go on and on...

    do you have pets, Todd?

    take care

    happy new year and warmest regards

    Sorry tdvance, could you help me out here?
    About the 'resolution of the eye' thread- loved the methodology, but am a bit stuck with working it out myself.
    I get everything apart from: getting from 1 arcminute to 75x60 pixels. The crux of the matter. Heh.
    Please could you could help? Thanks, Praedst
