Hi Scott, Having skimmed the article and some of its predecessors, I find it hard to determine whether there's any correlation.

But what I'm still missing is use of that modeling system to demonstrate any concepts in Day's plan.

I'd like there to be some abstruse nugget of insight in there. I really would. Maybe you can tell me the page number, 'cause I just can't wade through the rest of it.
