Comment: The Arithmetic and Cooperation of Committee Members
When you're adding up committees there's a useful rule of thumb: that talents make a difference, and follies make a sum. More committees the more merry making to milk the Military. The Cabinet Committee and the Anomaly Committee are same in scope- a smoke screen!
