I should explain that my motivation in writing the previous review is twofo=
ld:=0A=0A1) I think the authors are very capable of doing great and valuabl=
e work. And they have in the past done so.=0A=0A2) Intellectual honesty, pr=
ofessional honesty, and rigor are values that seem to have been declining o=
ver the years, in favor of a pragmatic sense that anything that can get pub=
lished is important. (I think it has been reinforced by the idea that count=
ing publications in good journals is the only metric of scientific contribu=
tion that counts, even at MIT). To me, this is a VERY important value. I le=
arned that from my mentors, Jerry Saltzer and F.J. Corbato, who were relent=
less in making sure publications were worthy.
