Nice, but where is the paper published? There's no mention of the journal... and I can't make it to Ft. Lauderdale last week. ;-)

Astroman,

Many apologies, when I try and pass these 'soundbites' on to people in the future, I will try and ensure to give a full bibliographical set of references . I am sure that there is enough information for anyone who is interested in looking into any of the articles further within the text which is the whole purpose of posting these articles, someone might be interested. The information source is always given at he bottom of the article.

Steve.
