...'so what?', but I happen to believe it is pretty impressive. Not a big deal to most of the rest of the world, people who readily do 'figgers' in their heads, and handily pull out their cell phones to use as calculators. But to someone who is historically 'math impaired', I was amazed and delighted.
When I sat down with my check register and calculator, pencil yesterday afternoon: it balanced on the first try. I was so surprised, I thought I had made a mistake, and that I should do it again to make sure it was really right. But didn't - since the first time it comes out with what the bank thinks is the correct sum - I do the happy dance, and put all my tools away until next month.
