how can you stand making such complicated long multiplications?
I admire your stamina but I'd go crazy.

Gents,
You might think I am already crazy using the Vedic / Butterfly

I can tell you it works wonders for me. If you can spare the
time and patience I ask you give it a chance with a number
of trial runs and see how it fits you really. You might be surprised.

If you do I am happy to give you as many examples as you wish.
Just ask.
