Scary Math (Run! Run and...Laugh.)

Dear Self,
Notice that 0.3 percent is three tenths of one percent.
Not thirty percent, not three percent, and not even (technically) one-third of a percent.
(One third of one percent is 0.333333333333333333333333333333333333, ad infinitum.)
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Me.
