Paul, I think you should realize that even if members of the Advisory Committee recommended off list to Jerry Levy that he should allow for rotation of membership on the admissions committee, he would probably not listen. The Advisory Committee already knows that people I wanted admitted to this list could only be accepted after the Advisory Committee was formed and Jerry Levy would have to be accountable for his veto power. And let it be noted that people about whom I am speaking are not in any related to the TSS school. I am also not trying to open the door to the TSS school. In fact the Advisory Committee which I think should have control over admissions is hardly sympathetic to the TSS school. Rotation is just a matter of our being a group and operating as a group, not being subjects to the decisionism of any one person. I remain bewildered by how this could be controversial. So I would like to know if there is anyone other than Jerry Levy who disagrees with this. New admissions should be handled by the Advisory Committee alone--Allin, Fred and Alejandro. No one should serve more than five years on the admissions committee henceforth. The committee will choose new members by consensus. In fact I very much doubt that you disagree with this. Rakesh
