    Hydrophobicity values are available on the net from the Skirball
    Institute site at
    http://128.122.10.5/aainfo/contents.htm

    Also visit Shaun Black's site in Texas with data for modified amino
    acids and references:

     If we really understand the problem, the answer will come out of it,
     because the answer is not separate from the problem.
