Just a factual correction: I have talked to the person in charge of
TR in Robotics Institute and she told me that I need to pay $2.00 for
each TR -- maybe that is charged to cover the postage (I am not sure).

Anyway, thanks to everyone who have sent me  relevant information.
While I have no problem in going through a TR and while I do believe
in its effectiveness in quick dissemination of new results, I am not
sure how to know about such work unless pointed out by someone, who
for some reasons, know their existence. Also, a work as old as this
one (that is 1986) should have been published somewhere (I now know it
indeed was) and the reviewer might ask me to refer that one. Maybe,
he/she was not aware of that. I am indeed grateful to him/her for pointing
out this TR since, although that work is not directly related to my
work, omitting their name would not have been fair.
