That was a crucial initial step. We also received some crucial advice from Kenneth Scheve about, I believe as I can remember it (I dont have my notes in front of me) about reducing / increasing the "priors" that prevented the program from going into infinite loop. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary King" To: "Zoua M.
