Yeah, I gotcha -- please give me just a little time. I'm not against
using Vlad's series, it just surprised me. David and I have talked about
what you're trying to do and we are in agreement that it is the right

I have some more questions about Vlad's series, but I want to test it a
bit myself before I waste time asking them. I'll stage a working version
as soon as I can.
