And it turns out you did; really, you should have let someone
else send him the article.

Too simple, it was from:
david@ms.uky.edu (David Herron -- Resident E-mail Hack)
at U of Kentucky, Mathematical Sciences

You made it much to easy David, a little more work on you
part, and it might have been a little harder.
