And of course, it was the actual dimension calculation
that was incorrect.  You need to plot the log of the 
number of boxes against the log of the boxsize for a
range of sizes, then fit a line against them and take 
the slope.  So it's a little more involved than just
a single function call.

And I misidentifed 'box counting' as 'box division'.
