OK, will try to ignore you, but it's just not that easy. ;^)

LOL! Yeah I noticed the thing wasn't quite twice as long
when I was measuring the pictures of all those sensors and
things on my monitor, and I also had kind of a hard time
bending my ruler to lie flat on the screen. Might have
introduced some inaccuracy (as well as knocked a lot of
stuff off my desk). Guess I need a flatscreen monitor in
order to keep up with this digital photography stuff.
