	That's a good question - I don't know who to believe!  Consider the
following from an article which appeared after yours:

In article <12470659574025@MATHOM.CISCO.COM> usenet@cslb.CSL.SRI.COM writes:

	What thoroughly perplexes me is that I cannot find any reference
to this issue in any seemingly applicable book, catalog or periodical
which I have so far examined (contemporary or historical, for that matter).
I am going to try and obtain a copy of the above referenced article, though.
