Richard Pennycuick has written very graciously and privately to me telling
me that I have inadvertanly confused two people with similar names.

I am very sorry that my initial teasing (and, as it turns out, RUDE)
message was sent before I fully checked out my facts.  I am including
the paragraph of Richard's message so you will see how very mistaken I
was.

I hope my apology is accepted. When I am wrong, I am VERY wrong.
