Interesting thought but the fact is that flat is flat in either log or li= near scale. Log scales give you a "compound interest" presentation in which a = given rate of growth is represented by a line with the same slope no matter wha= t the price or whatever it is you're measuring. For example, a slope of =BD inc= h per inch (e.g. month) represents the same rate of growth when the price is $= 10 as when it is $95. A straight line represents a constant compound *rate* of = growth, e.g 15%. The same thing on a linear scale would be a curve, concave up an= d left, for growth, up and right for decay. On a log scale, if you want to compar= e rates of growth for two different periods of time you just look at the slope of= the curve at those times, no matter what the values are. We're often looking = for a constant rate of growth and, for me, the log scale makes it easier.

The only problem is that the file downloads as a .zip. When I unzip it, the resulting file is an .omz file type. I tried to view the .omz file using various software (Excel, notepad, Word, etc.) with no luck. It looks like a binary file of some sort. Any idea how to read an .omz file??
