Un vers de Charles Trenet

Le critique intérieur prend un péage; 
mais je suis toujours ravi de partager 
avec vous comment une réaction diffuse, 
où chaque facette a des reflets argentés 

& représente une aspect spécifique &
unique d'une personnalité plus large 
trait, est mis en évidence par pyro-
analyse, une technique pratiquée de- 

puis les temps anciens. Ici, la variable 
continue est convertie en une variable 
catégorielle qui correspond à un 
modèle hiérarchique. S'il découvre

tu penses à arrêter votre travail de jour 
pour devenir un cirque interprète, 
souviens-toi d'un adulte doit être 
présent pour vous conduire à la maison.



A line from Charles Trenet

The inner critic takes a toll; but
I am still excited to share with
you how a diffuse reaction, where 
each facet has silver reflections 

& represents a specific & unique 
aspect of a broader personality 
trait, is shown up by fire assaying, 
a technique practiced since an-

cient times. Here the continuous 
variable is converted to a cat-
egorical variable that fits a hier-
archical model. If it discovers 

you're thinking about quitting 
your day job to become a circus 
performer, remember an adult 
must be present to drive you home.

Mark Young writes: "I thought about writing some sort of historical monograph on Otoliths, have, in fact, had that suggested to me by a number of readers; but even a monostich would probably cause my brain to fry after the race to get this final giant issue completed & in place before its promised publication day.

"So, instead, let me just thank the more than 1500 contributors — many of whom, over the years, have become dear friends — whose combined efforts have resulted in a cornucopia of creative effort that I have been privileged to curate. My gratitude to you all.

"& a special note of thanks to harry k stammer for his much valued work in preparing the covers for both the print versions of the journal & those books that, over a number of years, came out under the Otoliths imprint."
