Spent most of the day digging through lots of maths and trying to find ways to combine various PDFs together without going into discrete approximations.... yeah, I was having barrels of laughs. If anyone does have a frelling clue how to combine 2 normal distributions into one equation (and then be able to add more normals to that equation w/o vastly increasing number of parameters needed to be stored - best solution so far is to store *all* of the PDF's and join together later, but there's bad sides - like computational cost, which is the reason away from the discrete approx....)

Gah. I can vaguely do the maths shit, but it's pretty damn hard. Oh, added a few new pictures to my profile (using one now)
