paradigms

[Elizabeth J. Pyatt]

Dan:

I'm interested in your question, but am not familiar with the data.
Would it be possible to provide a few examples? The discussion seems
out of context to me without an example. If nothing else an example
would provide me insight on why you feel this issue is too complex
for a Listserv.

With regards

Elizabeth
