I agree with Phil/Statprof - but this is a great start. Thanks Mike for taking the first cut at this. Note that I also added a bullet to your best practices to include a technique I have used on a regular basis. --Donh 17:47, 1 April 2007 (EDT)

Need to consolidate the categories. Also need to decide if statement should be part of the category name for statements. --Donh 23:04, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
