I send the last post and THEN remembered another sighting.
 
On the old TV show Dragnet, there was an episode where they were in court
and they had a math professor testifying.  During his testimony he used the
slide rule to make a point of something and then when they asked him a question
he fiddled with it for 5 seconds and then came up with the answer.
 
just thought I 'd get another sighting in....
