    An excruciatingly gentle introduction to Bayes' Theorem is now online at:

    http://sysopmind.com/bayes/bayes.html

    Text by Eliezer, cool Java applet by Christian Rovner.

    (There are still some minor idiosyncracies in the applet, but nothing that
    should hinder the progress of the reader. Rovner is working on it.)
