Hi Jim,

TC theory is certainly interesting. I wrote up (literally 
paraphrased) an email that Bert Hickman wrote to the TCML simply 
explaining the basics. Bert's communication skills are excellent and 
makes it easy for all of us to comprehend. I was so impressed with 
this particular post, I simply threw it together in a pdf many years 
ago. What I added was very little and actually unnecessary in hind 
sight. The meat of the subject is all Bert Hickman. This type of 
question comes up now and then on the list and at that time, I just 
thought it would be good to reference the post.

Take care,
Bart
