The USCF office is about to receive a detailed complaint regarding
this issue, which will be submitted to an independent expert for
review. Hopefully the matter will not wind up in court, but that is
certainly a possibility.

I ask all posters to please refrain from discussing this matter on
this forum. We will report further developments here when our
attorney feels this is appropriate.

Thank you for your cooperation.
