Dennis - I am with you. Your proposal is the clearest, and it has the
additional virtue that you will only have to work out the onset and
dx figures once in your life. (Give it a few more years, and you will
begin to appreciate that!!)
PS I can't help it - I must nominate your signature piece as my entry for
