Hmmm, how many threads now since the WSR announcement last month? Little, if any, new informations seems to have been presented in the past two or three weeks. Therefore, the theme of these threads must be repetition. I was going through some reference material today regarding negotiation types, skills, and strategy. I was struck by one section that pointed out that when discussion participants begin repeating themselves, it means that they feel they aren't really being heard. Is that what is going on here? Do the WSR pros and cons feel that their interest, issue, and position isn't being heard? This has me thinking that the pro-WSR segment feels that only the pro-WSR segment hears them, and that the con-WSR segment feels that only the con-WSR segment hears them, and ne'er the 'twain shall meet. Is that what we've achieved? If not, why the repetitiveness - and I do think we've (myself included) have been very repetitive?

Sincerely,
