  I propose to compare the redshift-space density field directly to the
REAL-SPACE velocity field. Such a comparison possesses all of the advantages of
the conventional redshift-space analyses, while at the same time it is free of
their disadvantages. In particular, the model-dependent reconstruction of the
density field in real space is unnecessary, and so is the reconstruction of the
velocity field in redshift space. The redshift-space velocity field can be
reconstructed only at the linear order, because only at this order it is
irrotational. Unlike the conventional redshift-space density--velocity
comparisons, the comparison proposed here does not have to be restricted to the
linear regime. Nonlinear effects can then be used to break the Omega-bias
degeneracy plaguing the analyses based on the linear theory. I present a
degeneracy-breaking method for the case of nonlinear but local bias.
