i just took a look, actually registered me as "Rbj" (i dunno why WP
and WB require the first letter to be capitalized). but as i look at
the history of this and similar pages (in http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Signals_and_Systems
), there appears to be an admin (Whiteknight) who has done a lot of
the text and i'm in no mood for wasting time fighting with an admin
who wrote some, hmmmm, lacking stuff.

especially if he's an admin, it doesn't matter who's right or who
knows the stuff better. it will eventually be a waste of time (the
important substantive changes that need to be made will eventually get
washed out).

so i think i'll pass on this.
