    	 - This was the index to the material before the 'chapters'
    	of the June, 1997 index, were incorporated with newer files
    	of March 1998.
    
    
            As of March 16, 1998, my data-analysis FAQ has both
    	"Chapters" and then a greater bulk of files that are
    	newly added, in the form of smaller files, documented
    	below  -- Many of these  are from 1995 or 1996, as with
    	the original Chapters.  Four of the files have been
            duplicated from the Chapters;  they are labeled to be 
            distinguishable, with, for example, (o1996), in the title 
            and with the same preceding "o"  in the file name.
