All, I have cut the primer down by half so that we can send it off to IEEE. It is now under 6,000 words. Needless to say a lot of text got axed. I apologize if your favorite is gone. If something must be put back in, then please tell me where else to cut. We are allowed 12 references. We had over thrity. There are many more things referred to in the paper. Currently we have six references. We can add six more. By the way, none of the specs have citations . there are too many. Instead I point the reader at the ogf page. If you care to give me the six citations you feel we absolutely must have, and where they should go. The current set is: 1.
