Should I take much longer to return paper 1, there will be another adjustment to the paper 2, take 1 deadline. Additionally, you should go ahead and start writing paper 2 -- while my feedback on your introductory paragraph may be helpful, it is not necessary to make progress. And please, no need to re-email your paragraph to me. http://www.cs.amherst.edu/~sfkaplan/courses/fall-2007/fys/assignments/2007-09-28.html The writing assignment, take 1 has, at long last, been posted.
