I like that.
I have some dylexia / learning problems ( according to my teachers I was thick !  ) which have been diagnosed as dyscalculia ( amongst other crap  ) which is dyslexia with numbers.
So why am I an engineer with a hobby of photography ? 
I only had a quick look at that guide, but it seems to be simple. Anything that gives the numbers 'meaning' is useful to people like me.

Great find Steve.
I seem to remember reading the guide a long time ago and it didn'tr make much sense back then (too much to learn).
But now, having re-read it I have gotten a hell of a lot out of it.
Thank you
