Luke, I think you are doing both yourself and the other listees a
disservice when you denigrate either your own explanatory skills or
our ability to follow any such explanation.  I think you do have to
define your terms, else we all will simply be arguing across one
another.  May I suggest that you take your time, rest up and write a
clear and complete essay for the FAQ archives?  This way we can all
proceed from a common basis.  I, for one, would also appreciate
references so that I can know who is a proponent of this theory.
