Thank you George for your understandable explanation of what is being argued. Your comments -- and those of the other members of the list -- are invaluable. When the current debate is settled, perhaps if you had time you could incorporate these developments and repost your corrected Lunars treatise, parts 1-4? For those of us still struggling to understand parts of it that would be quite helpful, but I know it would be quite a bit of work for you. You almost have the makings of a new book on the subject! Thanks again, Dan
