[EM] Terminology mistake

[Halkiadakis Giwrgos]

Hello again.
I am afraid I made a terminology mistake
in the mail I sent yesterday,
that may puzzled many of you.
Where I wrote "homophony", I meant
unanimity...

("homophonia" is the greek word for unanimity)

Please forgive my mistake!
 
 Thank you,
 George Chalkiadakis
