Dear John,
We tried to solve this one on the DJML in late November 2003.
It was started by a query from our dear listmate, Don Mopsick, on 23rd November.
The following link with take you into the debate:

Or you can access the DJML Archive at:

open the [thread] or [date] link and take it from there.
Unfortunately it all faded out, unresolved, as I recall.
Here is Mop's final take on it all:

There are some interesting leads in that 2003 exercise still worth following up.
Very kind regards,
Bill.
