I would like to clarify that I did not write the following - it was
emailed to me in response to my original query. The person who emailed
me was:
Scott R. Swix
IBM Multimedia Product Development and Georgia Tech
uucp: ...!{decvax,hplabs,ncar,purdue,rutgers}!gatech!prism!swix
Internet: swix@prism.gatech.edu
ALSO AT: srswix@atlvm1.vnet.ibm.com
He gave permission to upload his reply to this newsgroup, since he does
not have the ability to do that from his account. Thanks again, Scott.
