So let me get this straight. Your response to aboriginal under-representation and insufficient geographical diversity ... is to reduce representation and lessen geographical diversity? This appears to make no sense. I think I understand the principled stand you're trying to make, Eric, but IMO you're not doing the cause of diverse any favours by arguing in favour of amalgamation. As they exist now, LACRALO and NARALO have very different "personalities", both of which would IMO be significantly diminished in a process of forced homogenization. -- Evan Leibovitch, Toronto Canada Em: evan at telly dot org Sk: evanleibovitch Tw: el56
