One of the high points of the election campaign came when Jerry Hanken
wrote an essay based on the famous speech by Mark Anthony in the
Shakespeare play "Julius Caesar".

Mark Anthony said, "Brutus is an Honorable Man. They are all honorable
men."

Based on the moderator's rule that nobody is allowed to make even a
mildly disparaging comment about Susan Polgar, Jerry Hanken wrote,
"Susan Polgar is an honorable woman".

Of course, the moderators saw through this and realizing that it was a
sarcastic remark, deleted it.

At the board meeting in Stillwater, Oklahoma, on May 19-20, 2007 the
board reviewed that particular posting and voted unanimously to
reinstate it. The posting clearly said nothing bad about Susan Polgar.
To the contrary, it said that she was an honorable woman. What could
be wrong with that?

The moderators did follow the board's directive and reinstated the
posting but a few weeks later locked that thread so that it could no
longer be cited.
