Text from Tim & Guido discussing floating point arithmetic and what users need to understand about the binary & decimal fp, so that representation weirdness is documented somewhere. This makes it easier to repond to "bug" reports caused by user confusion & ignorance of the issues. This closes SF patch #426208.
