So I was going to throw in my 2 cents here, but Dan (The Man) has much, much
faster fingers than I and laid it down so smoove that not only did I have
nothing to add, I realized I didn't have that much to offer in the first
place ... 

so then, I offer up some MS-based obscurity (which I'm almost *positive* Dan
didn't know ;) )

<tip type="VB,VBScript">
Be careful using CInt().

CInt() *rounds* values when converting them to integers. CInt(1.25) = 1, but
CInt(1.5)=2.

So what do you use to get the whole part of the number without rounding?
--Int().

Int() truncates at the decimal, no rounding, no problem.
