When you highlight a long column of numbers that add up to zero in Excel (usually if you are performing a reconciliation), Excel sometimes adds them up leaving a really small rounding figure (say 0.00000000002755).

 

You can highlight the same figures in the other direction (ie bottom to top) and Excel will return a result of exactly zero.

Ajax cleaning spray is called that because Ajax was a soldier who was stronger than the whole of Greece.

 

Ajax Amsterdam (probably) has more money than the whole of Greece.

 

 

I think the implicaiton is that Ajax the soldier was stronger the Greece and Ajax the cleaning fluid is stronger than grease.

Has anyone used those industrial type toasters generally seen in a hotel breakfast buffet setting? The calibration in them always seems out. One cycle sees the bread come out "raw", yet risking a further cycle generally sees the bread catch fire.

 

They had one in the hotel at Disney, but because there was quite a long queue for toast they tweeked it to send the toast through quicker. This didn't have the desired affect, as the bread just came out as warm bread, so people stood there putting their slice through several times.

I'd estimate the queue became longer by 17% before reducing by about 19% as people just gave up and had a croissant.
