I have looked at some of your previous posts and they are impressive.
Actually, a few weeks ago I was looking for information about the
ruler function and found that it originated with Thomae's 1875 text.
Although I can't remember for sure, I think I may have found some of

Thanks for your valuable service to the sci.math community =]
