I'd like to help you, Dave, but this reminds me of why I returned to math after getting a master's in psychology.  All mathematicians agree that the Pythagorean Theorem is true in the Euclidean plane.  I'm not sure all psychologists agree about anything.

I realize this is more provocative than illuminating.

I find the idea behind the article interesting and, when I have time, will follow up trying to find 'real' stuff to read. But, if any of you are feeling generous and would supply me with some pointers or directions; I will really appreciate it.
