I wrote just a minute ago:
"Let me apologize in advance for being so long getting back to this. I'm
presuming that people don't mind extended discussions on this list. If I'm
wrong about that, I'll apologize for that too."
Apparently, there are rules in place about extended discussions :-).
The listserver at UMD only transmitted the first third of my response to the
list and deleted the remainder. If anyone is interested in the entire
response, I'll be pleased to email the entire article to anyone that requests
it, off-list.
My apologies,
