[18 MB PDF file!]Thanks Richard, that's a great book.

Thanks for the invaluable reference. I see the organization which published it is located in Clemson, SC, just a 20 minute drive from my house. So, I want to add my GLOAT:
Twelve days ago, after about 6 years of study, my son graduated from Clemson University with a degree in Ceramic Engineering and Material Science. This was truly his effort, and we are quite proud of him. The fact that he has already gotten a job in that field, and is making more money than I do is (almost) irrelevant.
Now I'll be the only one making regular trips to Clemson, as I do a weekly radio show on the University radio station. For anyone who is interested in the arcane world of Progressive Rock of the 60s and 70s, I can be heard Sunday nights from 7:00 to 9:00 at

(click on "Listening Station" - you will need Winamp). Due to the winter break, I won't be back on until 1/16/05, though.
Anyway, Congratulations, Gabe!!
