Let's try this again... perhaps the list is working for a few more 
minutes now.

I got my 00 shutter back from SK Grimes after a loooong delay at
customs.  They included the sheet indicating the actual shutter times in
milliseconds for each speed.  What I'd like to do is create a small
chart to keep with the shutter that would indicate in friendly terms
what each speed really is.  I'm thinking that doing it in stops might
make more sense, rather than showing each speed for what it is (1/60th
is actually 1/45th etc).  Or more exactly, the stop difference between
the neighboring speeds.  But it'll be different depending which
direction you compare... it makes my head ache.

What is the 'right' or 'common' way to deal with the shutter error so
that zone system etc. can be handled nicely... (without a PDA ;-)?
