Hi all,
I would like to ask you to take a look at the abstract one more time. Wesley did a major rearranging (OPTION 2, some description below). I want to make sure everybody agrees...also in regarding the authors.

---mail and explanation from Wesley
Hi Yani and Ming,
If this message looks like something that is relevant for the entire group, could you please forward it to the Humboldt Extension listserv? I'm writing to both of you because Yani you should be aware of what I've done sooner rather than later, and Ming because I saw that you were viewing the document while I was also mucking around with it.
Somehow, I ended up experimenting with a major reorganization of the material in the existing abstract, while (hopefully) not deleting any information, and adding little new information (the exception being the fourth and fifth sentences). I have pasted my experimental reoganization of the material below the current version, and I have written a long comment linked to the first word in my experiment. Unfortunately, it's impossible to see where the original text remained, where parts of the original text were moved, or where I made additions, because I made a local copy of the original and then copied the end result back...and all of the change-tracking colour information disappeared.
Anyway, as I wrote at the end of my comment, you absolutely should treat what I did as an experiment in creating a new order of presentation of the ideas in the original version, and use the new organization, or not, to the extent that you see fit.
Oh, and regarding English versus U.S. spelling, I'm definitely the worst person to ask, because the spelling all looks Canadian (i.e. a British-U.S. hybrid) to me.
Wesley
