I'll field this one.  These ranges are entirely appropriate if
you are playing on an artificially small playing area.	If your
playing area is large  either because you are doing PBeM or
you are playing centimeters (or your table is very large) these
ranges give the required tactal uncertanty needed.  Play a game
where the lowest speed is 30 and you will have a whole new take
on the game.
