Yogiboy,
There's lots of stuff recently posted here on Audiogon (search SRA if you want to know more).

The vinylzone link is mostly a simple and straightforward explanation of the terms.

The other one, from Absolute sound, is confusing and vague, and the author appears to not have looked into the subject thoroughly, as he has to tweak his responses to comments from others.

His view on anti-skate (he doesn't use it) also begs the question of how far he has looked into things and the consequences (to his stylus and records) of his decision.

Thanks JG!
