That was what I thought until I reread 3777. It says that the immediately previous chair serves as an advisor but also says that the Nomcom can appoint any other advisors it feels like. I assume that combination is part of where "at least" came from. But Barry's new text gets rid of that odd and possibly confusing way of stating things and is, IMO, a considerable improvement. john
