The week is up, and restraints on posting to this topic have been
relaxed :-) Restraints were imposed, not because it had become a
tedious ping-pong match with each trying to have the last word, but
because it had degenerated into name-calling. Implying that your
opponent is a liar, a pestilence or brain dead precludes
dispassionate argument on an important subject. (The latest name was
Siberian Troll, which may have been an attempt at humour :-)
If people feel they have missed something, there are another couple of
dozen exchanges on the SDPD list under the heading The future of
SDPD. In the end, both parties agreed that they never said the more
restraints the better.
The most interesting new contribution was to point out that when
restraints are used in Shel-X, a final cycle without restraints and
damping is recommended to obtain better estimates of ESD's.
Unfortunately people are unlikely to do that if it gives
unreasonably large ESD's.
Alan.
From absurdity and crimes we arrived at falsifications?
Ugly yours, with pestilence,
PS- rigid brain is the first step before rigid body
OK, I asked people to stop this argument. The essential points have
been covered, so I am restraining the two principal antagonists from
posting for a 1 week relaxation period :-) Please email me personally
if you don't agree.
