Questions were raised about the proper use of AIC in model selection and

addresses the issues raised.  A PDF file of the SMR monograph can be found

Dr. Ellner noted the Bayesian paper by Drs. Link and Barker in the most 
recent issue of Ecology.  A response to this paper was submitted on 
October 25.  This paper (actually a "Comment") was submitted by Ken 
Burnham and myself.
