So attached please find my suggested edits. I’d have liked to do more but schedule’s bad today and this needs to move along, why I didn’t want a 12th hour rush.<div><br></div><div>I approved Milton and Avri’s changes which were primarily copy edits. I did some bits of reformatting to make it easier to plow through and inserted some bits of substantive text for consideration. There are a couple outstanding items, flagged with comments. </div><div><br></div><div>I guess it’s not a bad thing that we send a blast of the Westlake work on the day of the meeting. After all, they did a blast of us without any warning on the day of their meeting in Singapore. So a Tuesday submission of comments will be no more disrespectful than what we’ve endured.</div><div><br></div><div>Bill</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div><blockquote><div>On Mar 2, 2015, at 4:52 PM, Edward Morris <<a href="mailto:turkued@gmail.com">turkued@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="ecxApple-interchange-newline"><div><div dir="ltr">I'm not going to lose sleep over it, Bill has a tough enough job right now, but for one of the few times since I've know you, Milton, I think you're dead wrong.<div><br></div><div>The argument that thee is a perception that the NCUC sees NPOC as a competition for funding and travel support isn't effectively countered by fact alone. The facts are helpful but the fact that there is no competition for funding or travel support does not mean that the NCUC could not see NPOC as competition for same. This has nothing to do with methodology but rather is about the construction and refutation of an argument.

were competing with them for travel slots Bill’s factual response that each constituency is guaranteed the same number of travel slots. I included this and deleted the prior stuff, which was much weaker.</span></p>

<div> Disagree. Perhaps a combination would be stronger.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Look at the statement we are responding to: it s about a perception, not about a fact. I'd suggest between 'Not true' and 'There', in the revised document we put:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>-</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All NCUC lists and discussion forums are open, archived and available for public inspection. Is there any evidence on list to support this alleged perception?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In fact, there... (the new input).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>-</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This would tend to refute the 'perception' about what NCUC members think by both addressing the perception issue and adding factual support.</div>
