I have noticed a value I don't understand in cr2 files, "e-" as in "k 0 -2.96831e-05". Can any one tell me what these ""e-" values are, and what effect they have in the keys section of a channel?

Here is the translateZ channel from Posette's BODY actor the e- occurs twice, once in the initValu, and once in the keys section.

That's computer-ese for a negative exponent. Just a short way to write long fractions. In this case the number would be: -0.0000296831

Thanks Bushi.
