Re: Fibber McGee's Closet

To my previous message I would like to add one further comment.

List minders Dave Soemarko and Bob Schramm stood by and said nothing
in response to Judy Seigel's nasty personal attack on Mr. Ptak. In
fact, they gave tacit approval to her attack by their on-list
expression of full support for Seigel. I would suggest, and request,
that they also resign as list minders, as I have done, and that
Gordon appoint a new set of list minders from the membership of the
list, using such rationale as he might choose to apply. Persons who
have obviously lost the ability to be impartial in matters of list
protocol should not serve in the capacity as list minders.
