reviewRe: NDT 95-96 topics proposed



As a paying member of CEDA, I sent a request to three members of the 
topic committee regarding the possibility of leaving space on the CEDA 
ballot for the NDT topic.  This would give the CEDA community an 
opportunity to accept or reject the topic area.  I received no response.  
Have those of us who would like to see the communities come together 
more, in the interest in all of us competing against the best debaters 
and not just the ones who happen to be in one organization, been barking 
up the wrong tree?  Perhaps some of you were right--it is the heirarchy 
who will stand in the way of any attempts to bring these communities 
together.  This may not address the issue of whether such a merger is a 
good idea, but it does make one wonder about the structures that impede 
its exploration.
