I agree about K's. Peter Grimes devoted 10 years full time to looking for them- with new measures he devised - and came up short, but said he still believed in them.. but the test proceedure Mike [proposes is one that Gills and I =Frank used in our chapter 5 of WORLD SYSTEM 500 yrs or 5000? and I in my Bronze Age World system Cyclkes in CURRENT ANTHROPOLOGY Aug-Oct 1993. there in fact I sasy specifically wht Mike does: Simulatenaety of up/down between here and there is prima facie evidence that they are in the same bag. The up/down phase datings that we and thebn I proposed - inductively derived from the evidence - have been tested out by 3 independent research efforts and substantially confirmed. i have done a bit on revising the datings with more evidence, and am trying to go b ack to that now. one accessible tesd was by Andrew Bosworth in the Denemark ed WORLD SYSTEM HISTORY book, chpt 14. Also see Chs-Dn & Hl book. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ANDRE GUNDER FRANK Senior Fellow Residence World History Center One Longfellow Place Northeastern University Apt. 3411 270 Holmes Hall Boston, MA 02114 USA Boston, MA 02115 USA Tel: 617-948 2315 Tel: 617 - 373 4060 Fax: 617-948 2316 Web-page:csf.colorado.edu/agfrank/ e-mail:franka@fiu.edu ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
