<DIV><FONT size=2>OK, let's start again.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>To all: I have a picture of the Ulam numbers that
illustrates their quasiperdiocity.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I created this picture a long time ago and sent a copy to Eric
Weisstein thinking</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>that he might use it in </FONT><FONT size=2>Mathworld, but
apparently no interest.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>To all, (esp. Hugo Pfoertner, Dan Asimov): I am planning
on getting rid of the</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>image. Before doing so, I </FONT><FONT size=2>will
send a copy to whomever requests.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>To NJAS: I will send you a copy, which you may place on
your web site if you</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>wish, in association with A002858. The image is
actually fairly simplistic, and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>easily reproducible, and I do not care about
attribution.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>To Daniel Asimov: A PNG is a Portable Network Graphic
file. PNG images</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>are fairly common on the Internet and viewable using all major
browsers and</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>PC utilities. </FONT><FONT size=2>I prefer PNGs because
they are</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> (1) public domain (unlike most other image
formats)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2> (2) </FONT><FONT size=2>small (unlike
Microsoft BMP or Compuserve GIF images)<BR> (3)
faithful (unlike JPG images, which sacrifice image quality for small
size).</FONT></DIV>
