Thanks for the post, despite the haughty admonition.
Absolutely correct that there are literature, data, info out there, but 
nothing like getting the material that is reviewed by an erudite 
source.  Plus I presume that in reviewing the literature, U did cull 
the irrelavant, the outdated & the plain wrong. 

If each of us did the same for every topic, the results would, mostly, 
be disaster, or at best it would be repeating a job that was done, 
inefficient.  Neither R good options.
