Re: [ATM] List "reference material"
The article is now several years old for a basic article (it has been slowly
added to and modified when poeple have written about problems and things
that they didn't understand) and the weakest part that I see now with the
article is the quick discussion on the figuring of the mirror. I need to do
some work on that area with the various strokes and when to use them to get
that perfect final figure.
The article is pretty much written the way that I talk (Issac Asimov spoke
of that being the best way to write) and is indeed a bit more folksy than
some stuff that I've seen. It does get the point across as you have
mentioned although it is a bit more wordy than others. It is also built to
wander about through it rather than as a book where each section is listed
as such. I may end up doing an index for it some day as some sections are
rather buried in other parts of the text. After all, it is a work in
constant, if slow, progress.
