Despite your obviously formdable eruditon, I think that youo missed the pdoint. Joe has not been runing. a contest of who knows aabout or who has read the most journals. Rather , he has been proivding a muxch appreciated service to those of us who ciould not or would not check the scientifc litereature on our own I don't think that Joe ever iinteneded it nor did we regad it as an exhaustive or authoritative documrent. I suppose that I felt compelled to wrote this at least partly because I know Joe personally and I both like and admire him. I also know that Joe approaches this task, like many others, in a modest, unself-aggrandizng manner.
