	Baker,

	I have been thinking along similar lines.

	I was going to post an exposition of that thinking
	earlier today but it has gotten rather long & involved
	& I need some more time to think about it.

	But I thought I'd let you know that I WAS thinking
	about it & that it is coming soon.

	I hope. :-)
