Underappreciated; was a new one for me.

  To explain algorithms a little more clearly to less mathematical students I actually introduce traditional logarithms in case they are not familiar, in terms that are easier to understand. For instance in a remote river with lumberjacks dancing on logjams without falling in the water, that's a type of logarithm at work. When Al Gore does it, that's an algorithm.
