<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Sorry Sung, you know about the rules of
engagement in this list... you have gone to 5 msgs. And that means
one and half weeks of sanction. Even more after having warned you
privately several times.<br>
Anyhow, tomorrow I will make public an embarrassing bureaucratic
procedure that the list has to suffer next days.<br>
Best wishes--Pedro<br>

I think the main reason that we express 'information' as a
logarithmic function of the number of choices available, n,
may be because the human brain finds it easier to remember
(and communicate and reason with) 10 than 10000000000, or
100 than 1000000000. . . . 00000, etc. </div>
