Does that really matter? If two people do similar work with similar
results, but aren't aware of each other, is that a problem?

Is IP there an issue here?
Also, googling for "false eigen-index locking" returns 3 results. So
even google doesn't know what you're talking about!

Sorry to be blunt Len, but my problem with some of your posts is the
sheer amount of noise. Maybe it's just me (in which case I apologise
and I'll go back to not reading them) but if you are going to be
critical of anyone else's work or posts, take a good look at your own
first.
