Hi Ivan :-))
I would have responded earlier to your correction, however I was to busy
taking my foot out of my mouth AGAIN :-)).  Please note the word AGAIN.
Since a couple of months ago I gave credit to Alan Gauld for your book.  You
didn't catch me that time :-))  But Alan refused to take the credit which
belong to you.  So I guess he is not such bad guy as his enemies might
profess.  On the other hand;  there is also the possibility that he doesn't
like you. Heh-heh!!  Just in case he doesn't have a sense of humor and also
I can't afford to get on his "Black-List", I think it's advisable to cut out
the Jokes.

My mistake regarding your book's title came from not looking it the book's
cover page.  But at least I did some thing nice by not giving a link to a
"Porno Page in referring to your book.

Any way thanks again for your efforts and contribution.  I am sure you will
be hearing from me again (soon).
BTY.  What is going to be your nex Project ??

Best regards;
Charles Takacs
