To: Dan & Everyone, In most cases the answer to one question ties in with another, if one happens to miss the first or second question in most cases all other answers will be wrong. Now don't get me wrong; Dan and others do a great job on the Silicon Sea problems, but they have made a mistake or two in the past, not many mine you, but when the answers came out and mine were different, I usually reworked them to find the difference, and sometime I could not reconcile the difference. The problem was I worked the Silicon Sea problems a week or two before, and when the answers were published in my train of thought had to be re-energized. If the answers were there at the start and your answers compared with the published answers, no problem, but if there was a difference, and the difference could not be reconciled, then a discussion is in order. Still............... Learning the Hard Way!!
