Re: New era for the Credibility Group

Leonard,

I agree all the way through.

The trick will be to make the test broad enough that it can work on a wide
variety of solutions and produce useful analysis, but still be detailed
enough to provide specific information.

Seems to me the only way to do that is with a bunch of people working on
the test who come from a bunch of different perspectives.
