One last thought on Occam's Razor: here's a link to the Wikipedia definition...
        http://en2.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam's_Razor
        ...
        Occam's Razor is not equivalent to the idea that "perfection is 
simplicity".
        ...
        Perhaps the best formulation of Occam's Razor is the one which
        states that, of equally good explanations for a phenomenon, the
        best one is the simplest explanation which accounts for *all* the 
facts.

None of us are quite there yet. :-o

Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
