It's disappointing (though not entirely surprising) that it is a clear minority position, but it seems to me that it's reasoned arguments like these, supported by documentation, that are the kinds of actions NCUC and perhaps also NCSG should be pursuing.</font></div><br><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; "><font face="Lucida Grande" size="3">Cheers</font></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; "><font face="Lucida Grande" size="3">Mary</font><br><br><font face="Lucida Grande" style="font-size: 12pt; "><br>Mary W S Wong
