"The refinery business was in its infancy & the refining process itself so simple that $10K was enough to start a small one. [John D. Rockefeller] also was aware that the production end of the oil industry was an uncertain one & that prices of crude oil fluctuated widely. At the refinery end, however, profits were more stable & more certain." --- Fon W. Boardman 1979 _America & the Robber Barons 1865-1913_ pg 103

Except that computer people use 2 as a base raised to multiples of powers of 10, instead of 10 raised to multiples of powers of 3 because powers of 2 are handier for them, but they also want to stay somewhat close to the values of 10 most folks are used to.

"While the thickness of a concrete arch varies between 1/20 and 1/30 of its radius, the thickness of a concrete spherical dome can be as small as 1/200 or 1/300 of its radius. The continuity of the dome's surface allows such reduction in thickness by introducing an action along its horizontal sections or parallels that preents the arched meridians from opening up. The parallels behave like the hoops of a barrel molding the staves, making them into a single surface." --- Mario Salvadori, Saralinda Hooker & Christopher Ragus 1980, 1990 _Why Buildings Stand Up: The Strength of Architecture_ pg227
