I sure hope this isn't the proverbial FAQ, but does anyone here use CART 
Classification and Regression Tree) methods? I have recently decided that
these methods are worth looking into as spatial predictors, and possibly
for investigating organism-habitat relations (something I do a lot of).

I'm currently reading the CART book (by some permutation of Breiman, Freidman,
Olshen, and Stone), and would like to know if the software they describe
is available anywhere convenient (I know they suggest contacting one of the
authors, but I don't recall seeing a complete address in the book; does
anyone have it?).

Thanks in advance for any help.
