One of my students asked for the correct def and I couldn't find it, didn't mean for this query to go to the whole group, just to Efrem.  At least it didn't have any curse words, insults, or personal information in it. I once got a missent email explaining how the whole academic dept. was planning to oust its chair.  Sorry again. Deb

That email sounds fascinating.... Your student is most welcome to join the game if they'd like to give it a whirl.
