Van Snyder asks:
>Can we at least

Of course you can propose that as an editorial improvement.  Or propose deleting 
it.  Whatever.  I don't think it needs huge worldwide discussion as to what 
should be proposed.

I would recommend going back and rereading the Brainerd-Corbett discussion first 
though, before writing a paper.  Maybe there is some value in the statement, 
maybe not.  If not, delete it.  If there is, make it less misunderstandable 
somehow.

Myself, I am fundamentally apathetic.  Only, let's not do an "at least", if we 
are going to bother with it at all, let's get it right.  Whatever that is...

Cheers,
