A branch of Physics called Mechanics applies (hi, BB g) (Suggest at least three terms of Calculus first.) Analog computers used to be used for "solving" some classes of such (practical applied) problems. I wonder if they still are. -- Cliff |

I wish I still had my little swiss Kurta coffee mill grinder calculator. cheers T.Alan I first used a Kurta (Curta?) back in 1964 working for Calif. Div. of Highways. Would have loved to have one of my own, but, they cost almost a month's salary. Since we needed at least 8 place accuracy, the Kurta's were wonderful. Ivan Vegvary |

I used mine from '67 to '71 in school, then it was stolen and I bought one of the first 4 banger electronic calculators, and that wasn't cheap either. Today I'd rather have the Curta. cheers T.Alan |
