Ehhh ... if you need paper and pencil you're probably not a very avid 
photographer.

You look at the light and you know: yes, that's 1/250 @ 5.6 light. Oh 
that one, it's 1/60 @ 2.8.

The bright day? 1/500 @ 11.

The one that is a little brighter than 1/250 @ 5.6 ... that's at f8.0 of 
course.

There is really not a whole hell-uv-a-lot of different lights. There's 
bright light, there's over cast, there's overcast that's a little 
brighter and there's window light.
