Conductance (G) is measured in mhos which is ohms--the unit
of resistance (R)--spelled backwards.  G is the reciprocal
of R, so G = 1/R and R = 1/G.  The multiplier 'micro' is already
the reciprocal of 'meg', so no additional conversion needs
to be performed other than taking the reciprocal; therefore

	G (micromhos) = 1/R (megohms)   or
	R (megohms)   = 1/G (micromhos) .
