This seminar has been an extremely interesting experience and fairly educative for many in the audience (including myself).

I will confine myself to what I believe are two major comments on the seminar proceedings. These are not directed at any particular presentation, but are rather general and of a methodological nature.

Abstract


This seminar has been an extremely interesting experience and fairly educative for many in the audience (including myself).

I will confine myself to what I believe are two major comments on the seminar proceedings. These are not directed at any particular presentation, but are rather general and of a methodological nature.
