no, his Dad dies a couple of years ago, that's how he became a billionaire from a multi millionaire :(

Well it sounds like he took his dads success as a hand up and ran with it, most people in that situation don't.

Roger your either Einstein or the biggest nerd i've come across, i put the lens on and look through the viewfinder ;)

Well, I'm certainly not Einstein....

The only button you have to worry about pressing is your shutter. Of course, you do have to remember to take off your lens cap....

I'm looking at Rescue group now, found 2 dogs i think my wife would love,

Bear Bear - a 152lb Alaskan Malamute
Thor- a 175lb Great Pyranees

we like big dogs!!!!

If it was my dog, i'd have an Irish Wolfhound. but i have the little one in the house, the 72 lb black lab

Heh, my parent's half german shepard is around 120 and he is big, those dogs must be HUGE

This is true, but try it on a more realistic real world problem.

How about the the angle of view of an 85mm lens on a 30D:

AoV = 2 atan(sqrt(22.5² + 15²) ÷ (2 × 85))

Algebraic:
[2] [×] [atan] [(] [Sqrt] [(] [2] [2] [.] [5] [x²] [+] [1] [5] [x²] [)] [÷] [(] [2] [×] [8] [5] [)] [)] [=]: 25 keystrokes, and don't forget to close all parentheses.

RPN:
[2] [2] [.] [5] [x²] [1] [5] [x²] [8] [5] [enter] [2] [×] [÷] [atan] [2] [×]: 17 keystrokes, and absolutely no parentheses to forget.

Now, try comparing them with a complex problem.

Interesting... the problem is that is not I think... I guess I am doomed to forver have more keystrokes :(

*wanders back over to matlab...

**Raises his hand in the air**

Umm.....question......​Anyone here ever owned a Beagle? Reason I ask, is that my wife really wants a dog (and I wouldn't mind another one eventually as well), and I've been looking up different breeds that I think I might like.

King charels charels cavalier. That's what I have and there really cool! And they are really good with kids and are very calm

I remember someone doing this while we both waited for the elevator to arrive. This was in the lobby of a 50 floor building which I had been in numerous times......That day wasn't a good day to annoy me......

Anyways, as we got in the elevator, I asked what floor he wanted, to which he said #38. I simply said okay and smiled......I then proceeded to button mash all the buttons I could until I hit #38 (think I hit about a dozen before his :D ). I proceeded to then get off on the first floor it stopped at and wistled on the way out. It just so happened that the second elevator had just arrived and let someone off on that floor, so I got on it and road smoothly directly to the 20th floor. :D :lol: :lol:

......Never did see him again. :cool:

thats awesome, when i was in Atlanta with the wife in kids i'd always step onto the elevator in the lobby and say" I wanted to go down not up, crud wrong elevator" or wait till t got close and say "Sinners going down,Liars going up"

Don't much care for Spaniels.....Had a friend that used to have one. They had names it "Piddles" for very obvious reason. :lol:

Just noticed you missed a [+] on RPN. ;) Caught my eye when Will (themadman) commented.

You're right. My bad. Right after the second [x²] and before the [8] [5].

Of course, I don't do that when I'm actually using the thing.
