This is not ideal, just actual." "Inform" assumes that one is communicating, And that the knowledge is being transferred. This means that it is intended to be pedagogical, although you claim that the guidelines are not. Perhaps you mean to say that the audience is atypical and that is precisely what I am objecting to. On a more positive note I have heard that the Education and Outreach Group are developing an alternative approach. jay@peepo.com Please send us links to your favourite websites.
