George, thanks for all this work, gave me real pleasure reading and
listening, and I especially appreciated the field comparisons of
parabola vs M/S.

I use a PC and IE 6.0, and like Gerald I got better results to "save
target as" (but my system usually does that anyway), but I got weird
file names so had to download and then listen and re-name to match
the pairs more easily (all good ear excercise though !) - I am still
listening to the comparisons to understand it all. (Might try Mozilla
FF Rob - my son scoffs at me for not shifting !)

Look forwards to the rest of your trip George ! Thanks.

Chris
