No.  He said "non-computer scientist", indicating the people out there
that 'play' with LPC and/or DGD but don't have a formal education in
the field.  One would assume that he is talking about this group in
the sense that they will want to browse the LPC code and figure out
what is going on there.

Aaaaaaaah, daddy, this one is funny, he says 'free country'!  Can I
play with him, please?  Pretty please?!

Ahem.

Do you write because you like to see your own handwriting, or do you
write because you think that what you are saying is a useful
contribution to the discussion?  If the latter, I fail to understand
why you aren't making that little extra bit of effort to make that
which you were saying easily readable to your audience but instead
make them flip up and down 2 or three times from what you're saying to
what you are responding to, in order to figure out what part of it
your bit of text is a reaction.

Sense of order or aesthetics?  Puhleeze.

Erwin.
