Dear Prof Ragauskas and fellow list-menbers,

I'd really appreciate it if any replies on this subject could be
posted to the list as well as privately. I'm sure that this issue is
of interest to all of us.

I would also be grateful if you could post the details of the
documents which you already have.

Sincerely,

Andy Soper.
