Hmm. I used to think that was sufficient, back when the
technique didn't have a proper name.

Yes, I believe I would.  It's more about my own insistence
at the time that the technique did not need a name -- which I
seem to have been overruled on by acclamation.  It makes me
look really bad to Rutka, whom I respect, because he thought
it should be named after himself, and I argued the contrary.

Oh well. Peace.
