(it took you long enough...)well, i never knew i was a LaTeX opponent for markup environments. essentially, the only LaTeX i know of is described at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Math . i'm glad they added \circledast (which is the symbol i think we should all be using for convolution) and \triangleq (which is the symbol i think we should be using for "equal by definition"). i still wish they had special keywords for \mathcal{F} and \mathcal{L} and \mathcal{Z} that look more like the textbook script F and L for our partriarchs, Fourier and Laplace and Mr. Z. other than that, TeX or LaTeX (dunno the difference) has always sufficed for me for markup on whatever public webpage. -- r b-j rbj@audioimagination.com "Imagination is more important than knowledge."

IIRC many have posted here that they want comp.dsp to be like a lounge. Isn't this now just like a lounge?

The problem is that many DSP questions I could ask as a newbie are covered in the literature. However, reading the literature doesn't help to reveal the human side of DSP. An intriguing question is the role of Floyd M. Gardner in the history of communications. Gardner has invented two detectors named after him -- the symbol synchronization one, and the ML-based frequency difference detector. But why such a major contributor in the field hasn't written a book on communications? In the 2005 edition of "PLL Techniques" he barely notes that there are three good books on the subject, which he references. It's quite often that great scientists (or engineers) aren't interested in writing popular references. However, Gardner is also a good writer. So, it's a bit of a mystery. Evgeny.
