That I can never forgive :-) I apologize to the authors for this slip up. I recalled two interesting papers from the conference; the DG paper and the one referred to above. I should have said "I can't remember the attribution" of the paper, or asked someone, instead of misattributing, as I did. Again, apologies. At least someone noticed my mistake. Thanks Compliments to the authors. I found the presentation one of the most interesting at the conference. For what it's worth, my copy of the proceedings is pretty inaccessible at the moment, as it is on some ship, in transit between Le Havre, France, and San Francisco, which is why I didn't refer to it before finishing my posting. One of the perils of long-distance relocations. -- Scott Herzinger scotth%crl.labs.tek.com@relay.cs.net Computer Research Lab, Tektronix, Inc. PO Box 500 MS 50-662, Beaverton, OR 97077
