JA: The graphics for this paper were initially created with the SuperPaint software on the 1980's model Macintosh that I still used in parallel with Mac 2's and a raft of PC's until 1996 or so, at which time the paper got translated, more or less, into Word for Windows, converting the Figures to GIF files.  The SuperPaint utility was very slick for its time and the 35 bucks that it cost, even by present day GatesWay standards, plying together an objectoid "Draw" layer and a bitmapped "Painy" layer.  The conversion resulted in the two layers getting more or less out of registration with each other, sometimes losing a layer altogether.  Consequently, the text labels on the Figures are often out of alignment with the underlying image, and sometimes lost entirely.  [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 08:36, 27 August 2007 (PDT)
