	Tell him you're laughing because he's ridiculously oversimplified.
From your description, his formula would be better stated as
g = sqrt( (n + [HardSF = True] * 10)^2 + min(l,7500) )
	And this doesn't make much sense with actual inputs - where's his
ranges or normalization?
	See, plenty to be amused about :-).
