Hoi,
The point is not who is not on it, the point is are the people on this list complementary in stead of all being in the same mould. When this is a great list of people, celebrate them. When there are people who are complementary, suggest them in a nice, even private way. Your indignation does not work for me, quite the contrary.
Thanks, GerardM
Hmm. One more indication of the problems of pure text modes of communication. I would have sworn that it would have been obvious when I was indignant. When I am, I usually express myself in strong terms of an expletive nature. My posting about Sunir Shah was purely motivated by curiosity, and thus entirely free of expletives, or even pointed sarcasm. Very emotively neutral curiosity. If you you thought using words like "glaring" and "mile wide" expressed indignation, I assure they were not intended to do so, but to be purely expressive of the objective case of affairs.
