Although it is not relevant, since someone may want to bring in
comparisons, I do not believe that Sam Sloan is worthy for a position
of trust in a major chess organization either. That does not in any
way justify Truong's actions, however.

If not me, who is?

Are Goichberg and Channing deserving of positions of Trust? I do not
believe that they are.

Is Bill Hall deserving of trust? You know my opinion on that one.

What about Bauer? Remember that Bauer was the swing vote in the move
to Crossville. He could have stopped that disastrous move.

I am wondering what, in your opinion, I did that was reprehensible.

I do not know anything which disqualifies most of these people from
being deserving of a position of trust. That does not mean that they
have no problems; I simply do not know about them. I could make
statements about my feelings regarding these people as being good or
bad board members (and I would not say that all the board members are
in my opinion good), but I do not know of anything that should put
them beyond the range of reasonable board candidates who I might or
might not choose to support for election. Pointing to a single
decision made which seemed reasonable at the time, whether or not it
eventually turns out well or poorly, would certainly not mean someone
does not deserve consideration.



I am wondering what, in your opinion, I did that was reprehensible.


I hesitate to even raise it on an open forum, but you brought up a
personal issue which was WAY out of line for discussion. If you still
don't know what I am talking about, or you want to try to justify
bringing it up to me, please email me personally; I never want to see
it discussed in usenet again.

Very important announcement coming up

My husband and I have been in a number of negotiation sessions (via
phone) this entire weekend which could immediately effect our USCF
board members status as well as our status at the Texas Tech
University Susan Polgar Institute for Chess Excellence. I expect to be
able to bring you the latest news within the next 48 hours. Stay
tuned!

This is a shock to me too. I will find out more.
