reading Vernier scales

OK, it's been a long time, and those college years are a blur (....3... ok,
maybe 4...... acres, tops, I swear...).

Anyway, I remember learning to read Vernier scale (like on a caliper), but
the readings I'm making lately don't jive with what I know to be true, based
on a good scale (Incra rule).

Anybody know of a good set of instructions on reading a Vernier scale
caliper? (website, otherwise?)

Again, thanks a heap.
