1. fra paolo Posted: June 26, 2012 at 09:42 AM (#4166426)First, the delay was due to my being away in Washington and Virginia last week. Our motel had no-fi instead of wi-fi. I hope this is the last delay in posting results until the next academic year starts. (And even then I would rather avoid delays, because if I am delayed here it means I've mismanaged my time.)
Second, if anyone stumbled on this while in mid-edit, the table might have been in a bit of a mess. It is still too wide, but I can't do much about that. Vote for people with shorter names! Unfortunately, the old edit function when posting threads is no longer available until after submitting the link. Tables are problematic, and this one was the worst one for a while.
