I have just received word from Alejandro that he too has resigned from the Advisory Committee. Hence, there is no longer an AC. I expect that we will re-constitute an AC (or a committee by another name) in the future but with a clearer understanding by all concerning the responsibilities, rights, and realities (i.e. it can be very time consuming, certainly more so that Alejandro and others thought at the time they agreed to serve the AC) of AC membership. In the meantime, we will revert to the form of list administration that existed for most of our history. Off-list comments or suggestions on this topic are especially welcome. I wish to thank Alejandro for his service to the list. Like Allin, he was unfairly abused and insulted. AC members (and I) have put up with an incredible amount of off-list abuse - going back a period of years. Alejandro, to his credit, continued to serve the list in the face of that and I highly commend and respect him for it. He remains, of course, a valuable member of the list. In solidarity, Jerry
