Dear Mr. Hance: This has been reviewed by a native speaker of English, with instructions to make syntactical changes where necessary, as well as to render it case sensitive. You are missing a number of issues and that is seriously hampering your analysis. Also, your most recent scanning has been visually poor, which is presumably due to the poor quality of the copies available to you. Since you are making a sincere effort, discrete inquiries have been made on your behalf: it should be possible to obtain better copies of (your) most recent additions by going to "Special Collections" at the University of Arizona Main Library. At least until recently they had original issues of the Arizona Daily Wildcat. Without a better reproduction appearing on the screen, your efforts will be severely limited. Look for the following (missing) issues: 3/15/85 3/8/89 9/27/89 9/5/90 1/16/91 8/28/91 12/4/91 1/22/92 You should be aware that all the announcements are tightly interrelated--a piecemeal approach will overlook The Grand Design--as one can tell from inane remarks like those of "Ashton." [No doubt a sincere young person, but one who needs to approach the announcements with a less constricted focus.] You seem to be aware of the internal correlation and thus we are extending this propaedeutic advisory: go to the historic part of Tucson (or to the Arizona Historical Society) and ask what is found whenever excavations are made around the old Courthouse. The answer is somewhat surprising, so keep asking if the first answer you receive is "dirt" or "rocks." THEN, when you know the answer, look carefully at May Day, 1994, in the lower center portion of the announcement. That is NOT the point of what we are doing--it is merely an example of how the Courthouse picture is interrelated with the other points. While much of the message is indeed connected with nuclear physics, it is bound together with what someone of your background might consider a variation on Bayesian correlation. Naturally, we approach it differently because we are interested in Structural Change, of which more later. There is an old proverb that may help you: "Look to the obvious." Clever people almost invariably do not consider the obvious, otherwise, what is the advantage of their being clever? Overcome that hindrance and give thought to the text, which you have correctly remarked is very plentiful. Best wishes, Mr. Hance, this may be the last message sent under these circumstances. All concerned wish you well. --The Orphanage
