True dat.

I think there are several supplements that will wind up being fleshed out as I
work on this RG. The Machines MRS, for example, is one that I've been
interested in for a long time, and I'd love to get some real solid work done
on it.

I intend to set up a dialog here on the AR-List. I will periodically post
revisions on my web site of what I'm working on, and solicit feedback. All
list members are invited to pull down a copy to tell me their reactions and
possibly suggest alterations or additions. Since I have no experience as an
author, it will be a big help to me to have "wise readers" for my work.

BTW, as far as file formats go, what should we standardize on? I have MS Word
2000 as well as the usual complement of unix tools. I want to make sure I'm
not excluding potential collaborators by my choice of format.
