Thanks for the advice, Art. Since you posted here as well as
emailing, I'll post my reply here as well:
********
Thanks very much for taking the time to offer that advice, Art. It is
much appreciated.
Just so you know - I offered a collaborative co-authorship to Ray if
he would serve as the statistical expert on the team and he declined
on the grounds that we need someone "local". So his willingness to
function "pro bono" over the web to the extent that he has is even
more praiseworthy.
Maybe it's best that I take his advice and try to find a collaborating
local expert. But as I'm sure you're aware, such experts are in high
demand and very very busy, i.e. they generally can't afford the time
to come up to speed on "context". (If they weren't so busy, my
colleagues at Princeton and Penn State would probably have already
been able to find one. )
In any event, if you think I'm taking advantage of sci.stat.math (i.e.
"page-pushing", to use the on-line idiom), just let me know and I'll
cease and desist.
Best regards
djh
