@Michael: I think your observation will do nicely (having bounded the contribution of the tail $x > n$). Thanks!

It popped up in the analysis of an algorithm. According to Maple the corresponding integral can be expressed in terms of a Whittaker function.

Thanks Didier - that certainly agrees with the data. Would you mind briefly sketching your reasoning?

comment Example of a good Zero Knowledge Proof.
@Tony: well for a non-zero-knowledge proof, you can label each ball according to its colour and give both to your friend, who conceals them and then randomly shows you either ball (so that you can't read the label), and you tell him what label it must have. Repeat. This will convince him that they are different, as before, but also that you know which one is labelled green. However you can't ever convince him that a ball is green as you could simply say the red one is, so he only learns if he believes you.
