I am having a hard time thinking of examples. If what you say is accurate, and I'm just not seeing these major mistakes, I'd like you to help me to understand better what the UCD has done - so I can join you in asking them not to repeat it. Maybe we could put together a list as a talking point for Sharrieff's meeting. Ray, please give us examples. (It's okay if others give examples also - please do - but I really do want to hear from Ray, who made the original sweeping statement.)
