Hello. I have an announcement. I am finally freed. The ticket to my freedom, "Charged-Particle Multiplicities for Only Dummies" (ok. that was really the intended title until the invisible hand overwrote it.) It is available in Japanese for free. The version of the thesis in any other languages is available by the additional fees based on a language insanity factor. In case you do not know the factor for a particular language, here is the rule for calculation. 1. the number of the style of plural in the language. For example, in English, s, es, ies---> 3 2. the number of article. For example, in English, a, an, the----> 3 3. add the number in #1 and #2, and multiply that number by the number of gender+1. For example, English does not have a gender. ---> (3+3)*1=6 4. divide the total number of character that Japanese do not use by 10. For example, in English, 26/10=2.6 5. Add the number from #3 and #4 and multiply by 100. This is the cost for that language. For example, for English, (6+2.6)*$100 = $860 Ok. stop kidding here. If you want to read my thesis for some strange reason, it is available in Japanglish. (If all of those different versions of English (American, British, Australian, New Zealand etc...), Japanglish must be just fine. It is available at http://pii3.brahms.bnl.gov/~hito/thesis/thesis.ps If you are still not freed, good luck to you. There is supposedly a light at the end of the tunnel, even though I have not seen it yet. Hiro
