Parametrizations of the Seesaw, or, can the Seesaw be tested?

Abstract
This proceedings contains a review, followed by a more speculative discussion. I review different coordinate choices on the 21-dimensional parameter space of the seesaw, and which of these 21 quantities are observable. In MSUGRA, there is a 1-1 correspondance between the parameters, and the interactions of light (s)particles. However, not all of the 21 can be extracted from data, so the answer to the title question is ``no''. How to parametrise the remaining unknowns is confusing--different choices seem to give contradictory results (for instance, to the question ``does the Baryon Asymmetry depend on the CHOOZ angle?''). I speculate on possible resolutions of the puzzle.
