I just checked it and it works fine for me.

i put in the numbers, hit the calculate button, and nothing. i double checked my 'puter by trying some of the other calculators and they all worked fine. i do have java and it is enabled.
just checked again and it is still not working for me. it's something on my end?

ok, for whatever reason, the calc button is not working for me. the "clear" works fine though!? can someone put in the numbers for me and tell me the results?
initial r/p: 3.45
changed r/p: 4.56
indicated speed: 65

thanks in advance.
