Not exactly true. The true number is 10000 / 1.12 * 84 = 750 KW
And then there is the issue of doing on-the-fly text replacements. As far as I know, there is no way to copy some text, highlight other text, and paste, replacing the other text with the text you copied. This sounds like something that doesn't come up much, but it really does.
In some apps there actually is. As normal, highlight the text you want to be copied, then highlight the text you want to delete though using the right mouse button instead of the left. Finaly paste using the middle button.
This works in Galeon.
It also seems to work in programs using the GTK toolkit. However widgets with right-click popup menu does not work.

I discovered who killed JFK, and I will publish it in a month. BTW, I also know how to make cold fusion.
