The non-fragmentation diagrams, in which two or more quarks and/or gluons can simultaneously be nearly on-shell, are important unless $P_T\gg M_{B_c}$.8 pages, Latex File, Talk given at the American Physical Sociaty, Division of Particles and Fields Meeting, 10-15 August 1996High Energy Physics - PhenomenologyComparative Study of the Hadronic Production of $B_c$ Mesonstext
