-\item Craig Carter came up with a convex hull construct to find the
-  lowest-energy manifold of a free energy function or set of functions.  Based
-  on that concept, ternary will use qhull to calculate that hull, and visualize

+\item Craig Carter used a convex hull construct to find and illustrate the

 \item Based on this, it should be straightforward to use this to build and
   neatly visualize how free energy functions create a ternary phase diagram.
