LOGARITHMS: Phew what a relief!

Thank god for that! Visited me ma's the other day and at long last I found my logarithm tables. It's been tough without them these long years; what with not knowing the logs of numbers and stuff. I realise you can use a calculator 'n all but where is the glory in that?

I feel extremely fortunate to have been taught about logarithms, despite the fact that I have never ever used them and have completely forgotten what they are for. Click on the image to see the tables in their full splendor.

I notice that the log of 6.1 is 0.785; fascinating. As Bob Dylan said, "Twenty Years of schooling and they put you on the day shift."
