Doubtless, little ofthis is new, but nowadays it's hard to tell. So we must be content to give youan insight, or save you some cycles, and to welcome further contributions ofitems, new or used.The classification of items into sections is even more illogical thannecessary. This is because later elaborations tend to shift perspective onmany items, and this elaboration will (hopefully) continue after publication,since this text is retained in "machinable" form.
