Who's going to call him, Vince, you or me!?!?

On second thought, let the future board member do something useful for
a change. Mr. Executive can contact Bachler.

Vince Hart


I have no objection to Vince Hart, as long as he promises not to
arrest me, as he has been threatening to do.

Are you a TD, Vince?

Well, will it be Kevin Bachler or will it be Vince Hart for arbiter?
It seems that either one is acceptable to Sam Sloan as long as there
are no citizen's arrests or defenestrations. Presumably both of them
are acceptable to Bill Brock. As mentioned before, I think the main
qualification besides trustworthiness, is that the arbiter be able to
apply the "Official Rules" in a fair and unbiased way. Being a TD would
be icing on the cake. Perhaps we could sign up both Kevin and Vince?
One to be arbiter and the other to be the separate party to enter moves
into ICC, as Paul Rubin has suggested. Now with Kevin, Bill, Vince,
and Sam all in the same room, this could be quite a spectacle. I bet
some RGCP'ers would pay to be a fly on the wall in that room! ;-) Not
to mention we just have to get a photo of Sam dressed as Pikachu!

Time is ticking. We need to have a place to send match funds, and soon.
I need a name, address, and delivery telephone # (for the FedEx) for
whoever will be the arbiter. I assume that all other sponsors - Lance
Smith's sponsor, Randy, and StanB - will also need this to get their
pledged amounts in to ensure that this show can get on the road.

I'll just send a check to Bill and he can add it to the proceeds. I'll send
it off tomorrow.

Make checks payable to Vince? They could be sent to my office or to
his home, as he, Slothrop, and Sloan prefer.

Vince's home makes more sense, yes.

I'll just leave that to you all. However, if (as I suspect) you win, I
would prefer to send checks to the qualified 501(c)(3) organizations.
Unless, of course, this doesn't work for you?

I'm obviously sure that Sloan, while a charity case, won't get me a tax
deduction.

Checks could do a round-trip: i.e. Vince has check payable to VH in
hand. If I win, he could return cks & charities could wait for $$
