7 The adult form of "tattletale" is "snitch"
7 ...and neither one is very attractive.

Calling me names is not likely to change my
opinion on this point:


***I see that no one who contested the actual content of the Wiki-entries
received these e-mails! I certainly suggested /several amendments/ to what
was posted - along with many other netizens. Mr. Brock had written some
several hundred e-mails which did not address the content of the Wiki
articles, instead Mr Brock contented himself by referring almost entirely to
what he called [rightly or wrongly] porn sites that he supposed Sloan
encouraged or sponsored.

***Sam Sloan does not have sufficient respect for women, in my opinion - I
would resist his attentions to Scholastic chess on the same basis; that his
attentions will not be perceived to be sufficiently mature. [I, BTW, extend
my serious reservations to several other people active in these writings as
contributors and subjects thereof].

***And those /are/ issues to confront Sam Slaon with - but where are they?

***Instead we review these coy half-truths and half-lies, by
passive-aggressive personalities who cannot own their OWN actions sufficient
to engender any general trust afforded to them to act with decency. This is,
and it must be said, very psychologically dubious behavior!

***What Bill Brock has to do with writing chess histories or assessing those
of others, is unknown from his daily contributions in chess newsgroups.

***I have offered to interview any current board members seeking re-election
with the very same questions put to the candidate-board members. One
question specifically tackles head-on this, now major, issue of standards.
It is an open challenge or opportunity to anyone who bothers to show up and
Answer.
