Hi!  Is there a way of using the default pattern(:) and the match(?)
pattern for the same argument in a function?  I'm interested in writting
something like this

   Func[x_List, y_List, epsilon_(?NumberQ):10^-6] := Module[{},...]

but I can't get it to work.  What is the problem? I must have tried all
the different combinations of the charaters _?: without success.  Any
suggestions?
