- I like the self-selection process for meeting attendance. I
- would really like to see more dissenting opinions at the
- meeting (though it's not like we all sit around and nod in
- agreement). But, as Bill said above, it's really best to have
- people who understand what they are disagreeing with. So I
- would vote for just making it known that CSG-L (and related
- publications) exists; if, after reading it for a while, any-
- one feels that they would like to learn or contribute more
- (or set us straight) by attending a meeting, then that would
- be great.

- I probably based my statement on scanning the article and
- seeing a few statements about "motor programs". I'm glad
- if they said some sensible stuff about feedback timing; now
- if they could only get the idea that feedback is what is
- controlled.
