I think, -t, (among other things, I think that I can't start a line with your name) that your calculations leave out the fact that it starts from 100 rather than from 0, so to both your triangles need to be added little rectangles, like so:

Which is why I took the average. Which basicly is chopping the triangle parts in half and rearranging them to make rectangles.

Awww. Jon I am so happy for you and FAQGirl. I can't wait to meet her someday soon.

Jon, FAQ v2.0 makes me silly with the happy for you.

not unlike a molten chocolate dessert of pure love.

Which can be used to make a nice parfait....

It was two rows of four tables, all with glass tops and the tiny books under the glass. We walked from table to table. When the wife (!!) got to the last table, I lingered at the second-to-last one and, with my back to her, took out the pendant from my jacket pocket and placed it on top of the glass. I called out, "Hey did you see this one?" She came back over, looked at the object on the table, and said, confused, "Why is this one out of the case?" "Check out the inscription on the spine," I replied. She picked it up, saw the words "On Longing," and burst into tears. We embraced and I put the pendant around her neck. It was a perfect moment.

Which was ruined moments later when Jon was dragged away by security personnel who only saw the act of removing a tiny book from the direction of the display case...

Which is why I took the average. Which basicly is chopping the triangle parts in half and rearranging them to make rectangles.

Right, yes, very smart. For some reason rearranging triangles to make rectangles makes me nervous, because it's right there that I seem to make a lot of mistakes.

ETA: Er, apparently for that reason.

Jon, I am dying of the loveliness of your story. It's all so romantic and kismet-ly perfect.

Can we clone you?
