Comment on Testing Benford's Lawparent

It is not "my method". Just an explanation of why the law seems intuitive to me. I expected everyone to extrapolate out from my examples for other ending points, and which point, yes, the % for the digit of "1" would drop, and approach that 30% rate.

I just selected end points to illustrate the concept. I think this place is getting a little too literal. :)
