OK Bruce,

I started to go to sleep, and my mind started racing.  Now I am 
beginning to understand what you were trying to tell me all day today.

I can see that I might quite a lot of mistakes, and you were correcting 
me.  And also, I think that I now see that you were trying to tell me 
that I could emulate genuine double double precision math with the hi-lo 
thing.

The ideas were coming too thick and fast.  I also had a lot of other 
stuff going on today.  But even I hadn't, I think your ideas would have 
been coming too fast and thick anyway.

I'll go through the emails you sent me today more carefully in the next 
week or so.

Thanks.  And sorry I was not reading your stuff properly today.

Stephen
