[BlindMath] BlindMath Digest, Vol 175, Issue 12

[David Andrews]

I can change you to regular delivery if you wish.


If you use the digest, locate the text you are responding too and 
delete everything else. You could change the subject, but not 
absolutely necessary, and it keeps the thread intact.
