I agree that it is a good idea to get everyone set on the first two generations. Perhpas one thing that would help, since there seems to be some controversy on the accuracy of some Hamrick researchers work, is for Steven to post his source notes or other documentation that supports what seems to be a well thought out outline of these two generations. I don't have any definitive documentation on these early generations and would love to see some. Maybe then we COULD move on to the third generation.
