On the original page, he does type it correctly. It simply didn't translate when I copied it onto the posting form. Perhaps there is a way to write the small "22" (22nd power), but I don't have that capability, and I didn't see that it failed to copy correctly, but if you go to the page, using the link, you will see that he has it right. (Fourth paragraph down the page)

Yes, I knew that the 22nd power of 10 was correctly represented in the version of the article at the site. That's why I addressed the superscript remark to you (not a criticism, just pointing it out). Keep up your good posting work!

"Perhaps there is a way to write the small "22" (22nd power), but I don't have that capability,..."

Char - here's how you do it:

10<*sup*>22<*/sup*>

Copy the line above and then remove all the *, then recopy and paste it into your post and you get 1022

(The *  is not part of an html tag, which is why I could use it to show you the code - sup stands for superscript.)

This really isn't a big problem unless you are forging military documents to help Dan Rather. :-P
