Gaffe!

In message <6514@plains.NoDak.edu>, in the heat of the moment and the
spirit of late October campaigning, I wrote the Lotka-Volterra equation as

*     dP_i/dt = P_i Sum c_ij P_j

Of course, it should be

     dP_i/dt = r_i P_i - P_i Sum c_ij P_j

Apologies to anybody who will have gotten confused and/or corrected me
before getting this message.  With this correction, the rest of my
previous post is correct.
