A list is an enumerated set of entries. If entries can appear more
than once then it is simply a sequence. This definition is known by
every expert. Asking for it shows a high measure of ignorance. And
everyone who does not know it, should be glad to get it kindly
explained. In no case he is entitled to be treated like an
interlocutor in a scientific dispute.
