in reply to Old sorting paper holds the key to unlocking the secrets of the Schwartzian Transform

The transform is question is a basic technique and hardly deserves to be credited to the man with the name *sigh*.

I wish there was a better name for it, something along the lines of keying records for the purpose of sorting.. it certainly is not some amazing special technique that could be one-day patented!
