Atta boy,
Keep using that slide rule from your school days, there is absolutely
no reason why you should change and update

Your answers are just as wrong with a slide rule, an HP15C, Fortran IV
on a 360/65, C on a 64 bit AMD or anything else you can find.

And denigrating slide rules is silly. Most of the world that surrounds
you was calculated with a slide rule's resolution. When used properly
they give answers that are as accurate as is needed for engineering.

You obviously have no clue as to what it takes to do engineering
calculations.

Richard, if I used terms improperly, I ask forgiveness.

There's no point in asking forgiveness from Richard. He's read _Through
the Looking Glass_:

"I don't know what you mean by 'glory,'" Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. "Of course you
don't - till I tell you. I meant 'there's a nice knock-down
argument for you!'"
"But 'glory' doesn't mean 'a nice knock-down argument,'" Alice
objected.
"When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone,
"it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less."
"The question is," said Alice, "whether you _can_ make words mean
so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master -- thats
all."
