121201 - Followed up work at ref SDS 16 line 67, ref SDS 15 line 61, 
121202 - line 59, ref SDS 11 line 48, ref SDS 9 line 44, ref SDS 6 line 55.

121205 - Received ref DRT 1 line 30 from Max following up his letter ref DRP 1
121206 - line 30 asking about SDS. Max responds to my letter, ref DIP 1 line
121207 - 61, explaining how information is "stored."  Max asks today for a
121208 - description of the data base for SDS.  He asks whether it is flat or
121209 - relational, ref DRT 1 line 41.
121210 -
121211 - Morris described SDS as a "breakthrough" hybrid hierarchial and
121212 - relational data base structure, ref SDS 1 line 68.
121213 -
121214 - Max wonders if SDS entails a lot of cross-linking, ref DRT 1 line 48,
121215 - and cites debates in his business career about different ways of
121216 - filing documents either by subject, chronology or by contact, ref DRT
121217 - 1 line 50.
121218 -
121219 - He also cites earlier concerns of people who addressed more than one
121220 - subject in a document, ref DRT 1 line 50.
121221 -
121222 - These are all practical problems of manual and conventional computer
121223 - management of information, that are solved in significant degree by
121224 - SDS to support Communication Metrics.
121225 -
121226 - I respond at ref DIT 1 line 30 explaining background of SDS, ref DIT 1
121227 - line 39, my lack of software programing credentials, but that SDS
121228 - accomplishes useful management functions.  I sent a copy to Morris and
121229 - advised Max of Morris' credentials and his email, so Max can contact
121230 - him directly, ref DIT 1 line 61.
121231 -
121232 -     [See response at ref SDS 17 line 77.]
121233 -
121234 -     [See follow up where Max asks if links are automatic or entered
121235 -     manually, which is explained in my letter today, ref DIT 1 line 51
121236 -     -- illustrating the disconnect between time and information that
121237 -     SDS seeks to assuage, ref SDS 18 line 104.]
