Sounds like the new math to me. Or perhaps some imaginary numbers are 
involved.
And congratulations, Scott, on passing your Extra exam. I've been licensed 
for 60 years and got my extra 47 years ago.

I can't figure this out.  I'm also 39 and I got my license when I was
13.  I've had my license for 55 years now.
