i In my opinion the concept of the language committee is a good idea.
i We (with you) need that which is the ability of the community to get
together and to join with one another and be angry and laugh at itself.
i The typical committee is good for a laugh.
i The language can't evolve without the whole mass of individuals who
are opponents.
i The perfect answer is a committee.
i (read humorously)

Thanks for your expression of complete faith in the CLD.  (Committee for
Language Design).  And welcome back!
