well, hagelin is hard to get ahold of due to the minor celebrity status. You could try a request through his office, but he's doing the Lynch Tour right now so it might be months before you gota response (if ever). Orme-Johnson is semi-retired. Fred travis is on tour with Lynch also. Arenander is a Raja part-time and researcher part time, so who knows if he's available... I guess I'd just look at who is on the list of co-authors and see which ones are most accessible. Sorry I can't be of more help, but even on things that are of current interest to MUM faculty, they're darned hard to get ahold of these days, or so I have found. ------------------------ Yahoo!
