Musing while analyzing fishery trends...

This is how much of a math cripple I am.

When reading the symbols for "greater than" or "less than," I often have to stop and look at which number the symbol is pointing to, before I can say it out loud, because when I first learned it, it was "the arrow always points to the smallest number."

LOL, I have to do the same thing, but a little different -- I learned that the side with the lines closer together is the smaller number, the side with the lines further apart is the bigger number.
