How well I remember. I took a statistics class in college using a Versalog slide rule while nearly everyone else in the class had one of those big expensive calculators. I got an "A" BTW.

I have a secret. Biodiesel has been around longer than handheld calculators. I wouldn’t count on that price dropping anytime soon.
