Theory of Chaos and Probability
Your question is more intriguing to me than the predictability of the dropped
LEGO coming to rest. It goes to our nature. Which I believe is the among the
last things we'll come to fully understand, ourselves

| I drop a on the floor it slides under the table between two stacks
of shoeboxes and becomes invisible without the use of a flashlight.
Then I drop a it lands on its edge and stays right where it landed,
easy to pick up.
I don't know why.

That did the trick, thank you so much!

The trick with BrickStore, like many applications you discover: do NOT try it
on production, but use silly files or imaginary examples (I would part this out,
I would have those parts...), and try EVERY menu and field and function. Just
practice on dummy cases and files to figure out what will help you in production

I think I stopped trying the cut and paste a few versions ago when something
went horribly wrong. Despite highlighting the entire column when I pasted whatever
data I wanted copied it applied the first value only to all 900 lots. I'll
try it again when I get home.

I just tried, it works.
But you've to start form the 4x set list, select the 5x list as the source,
ignore everything BUT price.
Works in 1 click.

PS: you don't have to select anything anywhere.
It'll copy the values you ask, to all lots of the target document that exist
in the source document.

Copy all the items you need to subtract to a new file, divide by 5, multiply
by -1, then copy/paste (merge all) with your other document set to existing lot
and ignore all.

Quantities?
You can set them up, multiply or divide.
You COULD multiply them by 100 then divide them by 80 or such.
But it won't work because some divisions won't provide integer results...
And this is an hazardous way to proceed.
Instead:
* keep the file with the 5x sets and the price you set
* make another one with 4x the sets
* use Edit/Copy values from the 5x sets, to the 4x sets, and copy the prices
only
Upload the 4x, tada

It's still possible.
Some place like 20 orders and get really confused.
Got pictures of damaged parts - they didn't order and I've never sent.
Got message saying I didn't deliver 80 parts; one hour later "Sorry,
found it, I put the bag on the other desk"...
Many fun cases...

I think it's actually called a prominence when it extends out from the sun
and is seen against the black of space. A friend of our family had a major setup
for the event and pretty much had that same exact image from his camera. So damn

It was definitely incredible here in Ohio! We were also predicted to have a somewhat
cloudy day, but it was absolutely beautiful out. Bright blue skies and just a
few scattered clouds. Not to mention that we finally had a rather nice warm day
to go with it, too!

| Three minutes of totality. Totally awesome.
We had heavy cloud early in the afternoon when we headed out to view. About one
minute before the eclipse started a hole opened up in the clouds and we had good
viewing. Then, just five minutes before totality, the clouds covered it all up.
Since I couldn't see anything above, I just looked around at the 360 degree
sunset instead which was an unforgettable sight.
Suddenly, about half way through totality the cloud moved, and there it was,
the whole thing, with the corona. The crowd went wild. A minute later, after
totality had passed, the clouds all disappeared and the rest of the eclipse was
in clear skies.

Very nice! Aligned with how I've understood astronomers throughout the day,
relate the event: The absents of blue and green in the spectrum, allowing for
more of the sun's corona and flares into the visible light. Wonderful pic!
Thanks.

I always forget how the light gets "grayish". Due to a multitude of
issues with the kids, my wife deciding to run away from work to join us, traffic
and such, we ended up about 45 miles short of my planned location. I had about
3 minutes to set up - and I hate rushing - but it was worth it to share the experience
with the whole family. now they get what i've been going on and on about
the past 7 years.

I was singing that in my back yard with my son while we were watching it happen
It was an absolutely amazing event. Breathtaking and beautiful. I will never forget it.

Very nice for you and son, Randy. Hopefully he'll omit from memory your rendition
of that entirely unremarkable song, from what otherwise seemed an amazing moment
for you both.

My phone couldn't capture a good photo to save its life, but it was nice
to see. The orange on the horizon never let it get too dark. Skies were partly
cloudy by Cleveland. I got about 2 and a half minutes of darkness, minus street
lights that automatically turned on. Cheers,

We had clear skies and a great view here in Chicago. Amazing how much light there
still was when all but a sliver of the sun was covered.
