Tom:

I'm going to use a liberal interpretation of the council's desire to 
have alternates contribute "facts" as opposed to "opinions" in this 
context.  As you point out, we have a large amount of data to analyze 
and present, and I think we'd be doing ourselves a disservice to limit 
the number of people that can contribute to that effort.  Keep in mind 
that it is not practical for any given constituency to be represented 
on all off the teams, so it's hard to adhere to the "balancing" 
rationale behind the council's decision to limit alternate's 
participation.

In allocating teams, I will definitely attempt to make an attempt to 
limit the probability that selective analysis of data will take place, 
although we seem to be working with a group of people where such a 
concern seems unnecessary.
