Dear Doug,

The difference between color in theory and color in application (the former offering us guidance for the latter).
Well put.

Also, thanks for the link to the fascinating "handprint" site. That is a well thought out and informative page. I guess that I've been using the Denman Ross value scale all along without knowing it, too. Once I read his book, I realised that it was the same, but he doesn't use numbers for the values in his book, just names. And there I was, thinking I was using a "European" system. (It's a similar situation to that purse I carry around with me sometimes: I keep insisting that it's European, and therefore not a purse, but . . .)

All the best.

Juan
