If I may comment here. I see where all are coming from but, I think we have to step back a little and realise that so often we hear a call for more input with little result. Simply. We do not know with what response when a Roll Call is called for. On this occasion it served its purpose. I hope that any request for edited content doesnt suppress whatever willingness there is to keep this list turning over. My comments are not meant against any one who has written, more for the purpose of the list itself.
