Now I am sure there are mistakes in this, but I typed it all as seen in the book and now I have placed it here for you to review. Please check out any mistakes and help improving it. Also try to seek some interesting facts (like the one I discovered is if you knew pairs appeared in 1982 and 1981 papers, you could hit a bullsye in 2008 paper, maybe it is just a coincidence, but still interesting as a fact).

Regards
