Dear all,
Thanks for all your messages: my friend will be very grateful and I've
discovered a few gems myself. I have compiled below a list in
alphabetical order of the suggestions you made (I wasn't able to locate
a couple). Mason Gaffney and Nicholas Theocarakis sent me attachments
with their own lists, in case you want to request a copy from them.
Thanks once more
David
