Excellent, Greg. Had not thought of that. Another plus for the Ageton logarithms.

Hewitt,
The Ageton Classic table also does a great job of multiplying two 4 place decimal numbers such as the multiplication step in the Hav Doniol reduction.
A double stack of AB values followed by a lookup will get the P value for the Hav Doniol reduction in half the time of a four place longhand multiplication with less chance of error.
