The following article (7 pages) is available: "Are operads algebraic theories?" I exhibit a pair of non-symmetric operads that, although not themselves isomorphic, induce isomorphic monads. The existence of such a pair implies that if 'algebraic theory' is understood as meaning 'monad', operads cannot be regarded as algebraic theories of a special kind. http://arxiv.org/abs/math.CT/0404016 Best wishes, Tom
