Got a good, (non-dirty) rule of thumb to share? Update 2005-02-16T11:11: Sharp-eyed GH noticed the wonderful Rules of Thumb books are available used on Amazon. Awesome. Check out the comments for interesting background from the books' editor. 27 Comments

Yours and the two mentioned above were very influential on whatever tic caused me to be interested in a lot of the stuff I obsess about here. :-) » POSTED IN:
