Paul,

I'm not arguing with the decision made, nor questioning anyone's integrity.

I'll just make an observation.

Most institutions, gaming clubs included, run best under the "Sunshine principle". A transparent process keeps everything out in the open, eliminates nagging suspicions and has a salutatory effect on all involved.

I've sent you a private message on the subject Tanker. I don't take your question as argumentative, and I'm not trying to keep anyone in the dark. I simply find there is no added value in reliving unpleasantness in an open forum.

The most utopian form of society is that of one controlled by either one, or a group of philosopher kings... men and women completely disconnected from any base incentives to rule, and with their entire focus on justice, benevolence and equality as well meted as possible.

Although, I doubt any of the blitz staff are as virtuously enlightened as the philosopher kings of old, I do feel that they are perhaps as well grounded a ruling body as one could possibly desire.

I would msyelf prefer dictatorship under a benevolent ruler or philosopher king than allow the iniquities and perversions that do unfortunately exist within our democratic system to distemper the issues that face us. What other good could come of dragging anyone's name around, labelling accusations and causing disquiet or unrest? If there was such a need, I have the most stolid belief that our custodians and blitz staff would thus so alert us.
