Good morning, Lee.

Thanks for clearing that up. Dictionary.com defines "deltAfication" (i.e.
delta instead of delti) to mean approximately that... its definition is
"The formation of a delta or of deltas". I was wondering if deltification
is subtly different from deltafication or just another. lesser-known way to
spell the same thing.

Merriam Webster Online (www.m-w.com) defines "deltafication" as "we have a
definition for you... pay us some money and we'll tell you what it is". :-\
