If you go back to my comments, I did mention specifically that I do not like the schedules. I think the schedules should be supervised. This is an extremely fluid industry. Biosafety changes all the time. When I worked in research, the promoter was 25 base pairs. They changed it to ten. Now I don't even know what it is. Having a rigid schedule is not going to really help that much. There has to be a panel that decides what goes in and what stays out.
