I'll come up with another example for series-to-item. -- Ryan Lee [EMAIL PROTECTED] MIT CSAIL Research Staff http://simile.mit.edu/ http://people.csail.mit.edu/ryanlee/ _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://simile.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/general
