My questions:
1. I've read some of Raman's work in the past, but a quick Google search
didn't come up with his work on reading math. Any idea where this is
published or what the titles of any papers are?
2. Do you have the title or publication info for Abe N.'s paper?
3. A search found *Theral Moore in math at UF, is that who you are thinking
of? Any papers in particular of his I should read?
Thanks all for your responses!
Andreas
