Re: VMs: IMPORTANT!

["Jeff" <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well the text I used to compare for statistics was pepys cookbook which
might not have been the best choice. I need to run the statistics for any

I'm stuffed. I may then have to attempt a scan on a multi lingual text. Does
anyone have a link to a transcription of any of Dee or Kellys writings.
(just in case) :-)
