Power curve
I have removed the following from the article as it is simply incomprehensible as it stands. In addition, the fact that a slope or exponent (whatever alpha is) has been modified does not affect the line of argument in any significant way.
He had calculated a power curve<!-- and an ''α'' of 3/2 for the slope of that line [WHAT LINE, and what is alpha? That needs to be stated in order for the foregoing sentence to be comprehensible.] --> and he thought from the measures and his calculations that he'd found an "iron law" though in reality he had discovered something more prosaic. People since then have gone back and recalculated the slope, found it varied from place to place and time to time, and should be closer to 2 than to 3/2.<ref name="mandelbrot" />
