Also, John, your response misses the main point of my initial posting 
that if indeed your organisation and others do seek "truly substantive" 
evolution/change, why would you also not say so in response to the WGEC 
questionaire which directly asks the relevant question. Why does the 
responses to WGEC of all signatories to the Montevideo declaration 
clearly look like that they seek *no* " truly substantive" evolution/change?
