specious mathematical notion
I don't understand:
Is it the verity of rounding error that is specious and the certitude
of truncation that is meretricious, or is it the certitude of
rounding error that is meretricious and the verity of truncation that
is specious?
I'm pretty sure that the certitude of rounding error must be
meretricious, but my adjectives are all in a dither about who gets to
be applied to truncation.
Thankfully I now know that mathematics isn't used in any of
Photoshop's calculations. That's a big worry that's been shown a
Chimera.
(I'm thinking that I can save a lot of disk space by working in 4-bit
from now on, but I can't seem to find the conversion command under
Image>Mode. Does anyone know where else it might be hidden?)

p.s.:
I have great respect for Mr. Margulis' ability, both as a teacher and
as someone who can expertly use Photoshop to produce elegant images,
but I think that this horse has been beaten far beyond death.
I think it's been taken to the knackers and someone's still beating
on the dog food cans because they can't accept the likelihood that
their intractable position might need modification under certain
conditions.
