Unpublished sources

As the preface said, unpublished sources are not listed here because if anyone feels like taking my research without asking, at least they won't be able to back it up. On the other hand, contact me and I'll be glad to let you know the details in return for due credit in anything you might publish.

If you can add to or improve on what's here then I'd like to hear from you and of course I'd give you proper acknowledgement in any future update to these pages.
