Dear Colleagues - On the continuing subject of ethics, I'm deeply touched
by Dr. Divenyi's concern, bearing in mind that he does not know me. I'm also
touched by his desire to introduce others to his unique interpretation of
modern professional salutations. Of course, I will accept his graceful
apology.
Now, can we all get back to the matter at hand? Regarding ethical
behavior, I have some published Letters to Editors. I thank Dr. Divenyi for
making me remember these letters. Please see the bibliography below. Most are
available free on the 'Net, should anyone be interested. - Lance Nizami
