eliminating the second paragraph
I just edited the second paragraph here, which is like a little mini-tutorial on how to read mapping matrices that I believe Igs wrote, but I think it's out of place now that we have the General Theory pages and the non-mathematical Vals page. It's not that I don't appreciate what Igs was trying to do, but that paragraph definitely clutters up this page and would go better on the corresponding General Theory Vals page. Except I already have something similar on that page, so it's a bit redundant.
Any objections if I scrap it? I don't believe it's something Gene originally wrote.

I don't find the way it is written to be very clear, but it isn't intended for me. If you remove it, make sure what remains still makes sense, of course.

Cleaned up
I saw that Pete Kosmorsky added a few things, some of which weren't technically accurate. I removed the inaccuracies but cleared up a point involving the way the word "generator" was used in the first paragraph that I feel makes it more consistent with the rest of the article.

What is a val?
(Please give a simple answer!)
The references to wikipedia help not very much.
We should have better a handful concise definitions from our point of view.
Thanks in advance for working on that!
