Hah, I was clearing out my dad's collection of computer magazines (not throwing them away, just making them not a huge pile in a corner!) and there were some absolute gems from the early 80s. I ended up getting half way through and just flipping through the magazines looking at the ads :) thousands of dollars for a megabyte of storage! that sort of thing :) I love this sort of nostalgia :D

Off topic, but I have to ask: why is floating point division the appropriate operator to use here? Or is this some other kind of notation not aimed at Ocaml programmers?
