Ha, ha. That strikes me as so funny. I always felt like that when in math class and a train left the east coast and one the west coast, traveling different rates of speed, how long would it take them to meet. My flippy answer was always, "I don't care." Well, my engineer brothers cared so I had to figure them out. But I know NOTHING about permutations and plan on keeping it that way. Looks like I need Ghostrider on speed dial. Glad SOMEONE can figure it out. I am still laboring over that elusive "scant 1/4 in seam". Why isn't it just a full 1/4"? hehehe
