RE: Unexpected honour
Seriously Thanks guys I did not know about this site till I retired and have wished I knew a lot earlier. Try also the dissident SDPD Mailing List : Why dissident Armel ? I am happy to see that you are still a member of the Rietveld list and still use ICSD, but if your are trying for an English title, using these to construct dissident alternatives doesn't seem quite cricket :-) Especially in reply to a very welcome compliment to the Rietveld list.

RE: Unexpected honour
I have no other choice but to use ICSD if I pretend to be an expert/wizard (=adept ??) in inorganic chemistry. Armel, that is the nicest compliment I have ever heard about ICSD. Sincerely, Thanks ! Alan xxx See how we are different. For you this is a compliment. For me no other choice is an intolerable constraint. No thanks ! Armel

Sorry, but I think there is here a mal interpretation (is correct that in English?) of the dictionary. I don't think that the people in SDPD list are thinking the powder diffraction differently than the people in the Rietveld list. Or, if there are differences on some particular subject from one member to other, this can happen also inside the same chat list. An alternative, a diversification, does not mean automatically a disidence. Let us not blurred a word very dear to people like me, rising and living most of the life in a dictatorial regime.

Re: Unexpected honour
Dear Dr Apu, Don't worry. You have done nothing wrong. It is just a private Anglo-French joke, and it is not (yet) forbidden to make jokes :-) I am sure Armel will be delighted - he has been called worse things :-) Alan.
