The article was in desperate need of copy-editing for clarity and brevity. I have endeavored to improve its style, while leaving almost all original information intact. I removed a few statements that were unnecessarily POV, and added a few references and links to improve its suitability for Wikipedia. —Aetheling 16:49, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
