Kent,
Despite all rethoric to will have time to put on the list, I keep challenging.
I consider that you cannot be a voting member rep in the BC and also a
voting member rep in the NCC without experiencing any conflict of
interest. 
Therefore, for the next vote (most probably for the MdR resolution
approval), I will ask the AdCom to leave Potter Yachter with a
non-voting status in the NCDNHC. You are still welcome to ask Potter
Yachter to designate someone else to be its NCDNHC rep. In such case, I
am sure you will be attentive that this new rep will have a real
autonomy to vote!

Remark holds also for FRAX.
