So I'm actually ok with Read the China Study and Jazz as assistant mods. A little counterpoint never hurts, and additional responsibility for Jazz might cause him to focus his comments. I think Jazz is a long with a twist.

I would like to have LaJet back, and if Moderator is the only option then let's put him there. My other choice for Moderator would be Alan.

Also strongly in favor of Atlas as an assistant mod

Fuja and Tiny offer their technical skills analysis already to great reviews.

We need a Warrior. LaJet.

Alan is a warrior but his cause is more narrow. Atlas is a warrior but he also pinch hits as a devil's advocate.

What say you?
