Though I think that this is the question that needs to be answered *first*, since if you can't answer that question, then you cannot presume that the rest of your model will ever be workable, and how you approach answering the other questions may be strongly influenced by how you answered the first. Any attempt to answer the other questions without answering the first are not (to me) particularly interesting since they are all just floating around in "la la land" and who knows if they can ever be put to practical use. I think, though, that we have the kernel of an answer to that first question. Patrick -- Patrick Stickler Nokia, Finland patrick.stickler@nokia.com
