[SI-LIST] Even mode, common mode, and mode conversion

Gurus,

I've been following the thread on mode conversion and suspect I am not the 
only one with this question. Can someone explain, in layman's terms:

The distinction between even mode and common mode?
        between odd mode and differential MODE (not to be confused with 
differential traces)

And does the existence of differential traces add any complications to 
these distinctions?

Thanks for bringing the dummies along with you!
