<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Folks, I am about to post the final version of the rights
statement. Time has run out, and we have to give a YES or NO response within 48
hours.</span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I have had to try to steer a path between those who would feel
uncomfortable with any statement that suggested exploring new and contentious rights,
and those who would want to reject any statement that did not. Milton described the problem as insoluble –
perhaps he is right. But with many of us feeling that this rights theme must be
explored, I have had to try to come up with something acceptable to both
parties.</span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I believe the only way this could be done was to
substantially change the emphasis of the statement. I have attempted to do
this, and in the process may well have upset some. My intention here is quite
clear – to get a statement acceptable to this list. To me it's
important that we advance the theme and have this emphasis at Cairo.</span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">In the process we may all have to give a little. We may not
agree with everything. </span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">I've changed the order of a few things to improve
acceptability, emphasis, and expression. More than I normally would want to at
this stage. But I believe that was necessary to get a consensus statement.</span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;"> </span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial;">Let me also say that this has been one of the most
interesting discussions on this list for some time, with some very valid, expert,
and differing opinions being advanced. </span></font></p>

a separate message.</span></font></p>
