Gentlemen....

No bickering please.

And there are some here (moi...) who are finding it difficult to keep up
with the math chops... so if anyone wants to offer explanations of the
technical terms, ideas, etc. please do so without fear of OFFENDING
people.

Those less proficient in the art will benefit from an open discussion of
the topic.

and hey... I don't get it all. This is running right on the edge of my
comprehension... so be nice to the (advanced) newbies and feel
free to offer patronizing explanations   :^P
