Hello all,

This is my first post to this list, but I've been lurking (and 
learning!) for about a month now.  I'm new to all of this, so 
unfortunately a lot of what is discussed is WAY over my head, but 
that's ok, I'm learning more and more each day.  Thanks to all of you 
who are willing to share your knowledge.  I especially appreciate the 
posts regarding worthwhile books to read on the subject, I've written 
down the titles and intend to read them soon.

A quick question if I may, and I apologize for the elementary nature 
of it - When drawing graphs (price vs time), when/why is it 
appropriate to use a logarithmic scale as opposed to a linear scale 
for the vertical "price" axis?  Or, does it matter?

Thanks,
-Tom Green
