100 Diameters....I think....*BOOOOOOOOM*

Martin's bit of technospeak is a nifty way to slap a bandaid
justification on why jump drives follow the 100-diameter rule;
I'm going to plug in some other numbers and work out if the
"coincidence" carries to other possible situations. Martin, have
you worked out the math for jumping away from, say, Jupiter? Or
Pluto? What about nearby moons of significant size?

Personally, though, I think I'm going to mess with the 1/r**2
critical point a bit and see if I can come up with something
reasonable for TDR....
