Gary and All,

 I think you made some good comments here.  Let us all hope that
we did not waste our time in an effrot that was mearly and exercise
in respect to just "Attack/Defend" startagy on the part of the IAHC.


  For myself, I don't believe this is the case.  But I can see where
some might interprate many of the posts in that manner.  I did find
it somewhat disappointing that and "Updated intrim draft"  was not
done or given much consideration.  This I think lead to alot of
the disappointment of some on this list, including myself.  However
as I have said repeatedly I am still hopefull that members will
have listened and adjust the Dec 19 Draft accordingly.  We shall
all see...
