Note:
--- My early papers pre-date the existence of the e-print archive and the word-wide-web.
--- Web access to my early articles is spotty at best, and there is no substitute for a good library.
--- The e-print archive came online in August 1991.
Almost all my papers from this date on can be accessed, at least in e-print form, via the world-wide-web.
