Dear Naglt 
 
          I stand corrected on the :rrington law  I agree 
that the term "law" is a little optimistic, but I do think 
it is of importance for somebody like -rrington to verify 
the definite aplication of the pre-existing principle to 
a particaar pecies, and to do so in quantitative terms
