I have got a data set that is Gross Primary Productivity ~ Total
Suspended Solids it is a hyperbola just like:
plot(1/c(1:1000))

how do I model this relationship so that I can get all of the neat
things that lm gives residuals etc. etc. so that I can see if my
eyeball model stands up.  Thanks for any help, pointers, or good
things to read.

so little or so large that all they really do for us is puff us up and
make us feel like gods. We are mammals, and have not exhausted the
annoying little problems of being mammals.
