Jim, I didn't see anything in your post about "permutation density" (a
term I made up because I don't know what it's really called). By this
I'm referring to how many possible roots of a given form are actually
used. For example, if you give definitions to 70% of the possible CV
words (assuming those are possible words), then the permutation
density there is 70%. Would you want to set some limits on permutation
density? ---larry
