Re: [wg-review] 4. [GA] Draft Text Clarification

[Eric Dierker <Eric@HI-TEK.COM>]

Most enlightening. I delete most so as not to overburden.  I certainly
do not agree
with most of your assesments from a good and proper prospective. 
However they are
great from a your perspective of fact.
I am having trouble with the existing structure.  It is way to heavily
weighted in
favor of big business and not ICW.
The working group assesment is great and true, so we must find and
impliment a
better system, maybe Sotoris' is the answer with individual researchers.

The following is an excerpt from my almost ninety year old father.  Note
the
reference to changes and "improvements?" and email.  While no one here
needs
motivation I want everyone to realize just how important this is on a
personal
level.  My father and I live a thousand miles apart, he is a multiple
doctorate
often published in journals of Medicine, If we do our job the ease with
which
others may gain from his wisdom  and a simple family connection will not
be lost.

 Over the
years I've always enjoyed our mail contact--especially that card from
Orange re the Plaza & period autos--made me realize how many
changes(improvements???) I've seen & been involved in. My retirement
came along just in time to keepup with the literature and advances such
as email----huwever.lately the speed seems to be advancing
exponentially---look @ Gnomes.    As ever    Grampa D

Let us be as vigilant as the Rose gardener, and produce as sweet a
product.

Ultreya,
