I was doing something in physics when I thought of this:
             
log  (a^z)    = z/n
   a^n          

or log base (a to the n) of (a to the z) = z over n

  It's not all that important, but it's a bit quicker in figuring out
things that are really obvious like log base 8 of 2 which would be 
1/3.  What it is, is a specialised application of the reciprocal log
rule where (log base a of b) is equal to (1 over (log base b of a)).
  Well, I just thought I'd share that trivial bit of something.  Is
the conversation dead in here or what?
