Dear Vincent and List,

	I read your paper with great interest. i will implement it for  
datasets for Affymetrix Chips with
mismatch probes, to which it is geared, along with the weighting  
method suggested by Jim MacDonald, for arrays which pass the test.  
However a Gene ST1.0 dataset has come up with this kind of rejection  
question. Has you method be adapted to Gene ST1.0 arrays? If not, do  
you know of
a method analogous to yours which can be used for ST1.0s.

Thanks and best wishes,
Rich

I am a Bayesian. When I see a multiple-choice question on a test and I  
don't
know the answer I say "eeney-meaney-miney-moe".
