I also think that a 50% replacement rule - or even a 66% replacement
rule would be very useful. The work load is very high, but much of
that is gathering knowledge and opinions on the different candidates.
Since the candidate set from year to year is not disjoint, I think
that the work load for consecutive years would be feasible.
One advantage of this is having recent historical knowledge -
currently the NomCom must depend upon this from the previous NomCom
chair and liasons, which gives added strength from the non-voting
members.
It may be the case that those NomCom members who are old would wield
more influence the second year, but I think that will pull more
randomly from the members than having a separate experienced pool.

I was discussing this with various people yesterday - maybe it would be
useful to have a "moving average" NOMCOM, with a two year term, and 50%
replacement each year. Once that was set up, I think that the need for
experienced hands would diminish - one year on the NOMCOM seems to be
quite a bit of experience.
A 50% replacement rule would be, in my view, very much preferable to
the two-tier version that's been proposed. The original proposal
will, in my view, make the Nomcom effectively the domain of the
"experienced" people -- i.e. the "elect" will just take over, and
Nomcom decisions will be whatever those three want (regardless of the
best intentions of all the participants). This new proposal will
still create a differentiation in the Nomcom, but that differentiation
is not based on being the product (either direct or indirect) of
previous Nomcoms. This is a change I would support.
