6 And perhaps one of the issues is: Are
7 there three or four that would be worthy of
8 consideration in moving along on the track that at

10 I don't think you made a suggestion one
11 way or the other, but I guess if you want me to stick

13 CO-CHAIRMAN CARPENTER: I do.
14 DR. ROGERS: -- my own view would be let's
15 see if there aren't three or four that are promising
16 and thoughtfully consider whether it wouldn't be
17 worthwhile moving ahead with such a trial.
18 CO-CHAIRMAN CARPENTER: Okay. Thank you.
19 I think that's a very important issue to get on the
20 floor.
21 I wonder who would like to address that.
22 Dani, would you like to comment on that?
