Everyone is now pitching in with ad-hoc rewrites of the science plan. Are we going to debate each and every sentence of the plan in the committee? If so, we will certainly do nothing else. I for one disagree with a number of the points thus far suggested for being written in, and I can see us being there all night! My view remains that the science plan as written is, as it should be, inclusive of practically all the science so far suggested. We should keep it short, relatively general and be particularly wary of specifically _excluding_ areas of science. And we should move rapidly on to the implementation plan -- what we propose to do -- which is actually what matters. Cheers, Andy *********************************** Prof Andrew J.
