I find the techniques used to analyze this fascinating subject to be very sophisticated. The work is lengthy and complete - the reader will take time to digest all that it offers.

Please allow me to congratulate Plos One for publishing it and, of course, congratulate also, my collegues for this contribution of the highest level.
