     Hi Mike,
     I had meetings etc. yesterday, I so couldn't get the update posted yet.
     I will do so today, but am not so happy with your webpage simply being a mirror of
     ours.  It just has our names on it, and so the updates plus the correction that you've
     posted at the end, appear to be coming from us or at least endorsed by us.
     I'd prefer a webpage that was more clearly authored by you, though of course linking to
     our page to explain our statement/involvement, followed by whatever updates you wish to
     post.
     Sorry if this seems ultra-sensitive to you; it's just that we feel that keeping some
     level of independence (and being seen to do so) would be useful for defending our
     subsequent objectivity on this issue - two independent opinions will carry more weight
     than two that aren't seen as independent.
     Cheers
     Tim

     Hi Tim,
     Disregard my previous email, for updates you can refer people to our webpage here:
     [2]http://holocene.evsc.virginia.edu/Mann/EEReply.html
     Right now, its just a mirror of your page,  but w/ the response updated. I can always
     update it at a later time, but why don't you just link here for updates..
     Thanks a bunch. Can you get this in before quitting time tonight? I think it's important
     people see
     the clarified version, lest they be confused about how the PCs were calculated for the
     sub networks. Thanks a bunch,
     mike
