Well, I GUESS that they are "Stochastic" functions as in George Lane's
"f"ast and "s"low "Stochastics". If that is the case, the defaults are
typically 10, 3 and 10, 3, 3 respectively. However, that and a couple
of bucks will get you on the Subway--unlike when we were kids and had
keys to the Subway.
