The integration is over a single realization. If one uses perturbation theory, one can integrate over the probability density, but that's last year's research at this point. Also, our approach should allow for rougher surfaces, since it includes all orders of perturbation theory. Thanks for all your insights! You've been very helpful. It's too bad, but it seems like we may be stuck with LU factorization for a while yet. Paul.
