An excellent "new" way of modelling bubble formation may be found in Monte Carlo simulation methods. An excellent tool, based on *random* numbers, for _recreating_ or _emulating_ physical phenomena that are based on various statistically occuring processes. Which is just what bubble formation seems to consist of. - Gerrit ****************************************************************** G. Conradie Phone: +27 21 808 4452 (W) Dept.
