Exactly the point. So that even with TIPSTERS it will often happen that they don't read the papers represented by the references but rather rely on the reference itself (and the reputation of the lab that produced it). --Mike --- To make changes to your subscription contact: Bill Southerly (bsouthe...@frostburg.edu)
