Sorry Willi, you are right, I overlooked (by accident) your paper! I even
have not the excuse not to know about this paper.... I simply did not have
keywords on this work in my reference database yet, although it is on 'high
priority' for reading, and I only looked it through. I hope I did not
overlook more important references.

Dear Greg and others,

I hate to self-advertise. However, Pier gave a number of references. In
the given context I missed our recent publication

Roland A. Werner and Willi A. Brand, Referencing Strategies and
Techniques in Stable Isotope Ratio Analysis, Rapid Comm. Mass Spectrom.
15 (2001) 501-519

which is based on our recent experience to build a large isotope
facility at our institute. If you do not have access to the journal I'll
be happy to send a reprint.

Regards    Willi
