I found the following checking Leo and getting a link there: ''Blockwart'' im Sinne von ''Blockleiter' <nazi Ger> oder ''Blockwärter'' = Verseher einer Blockstelle? G. Hauptmanns ''Bahnwärter Thiele'' kommt mir dabei in den Sinn. The Oxford-Duden Dict. enthält ''block warden.'' Falls dieses sich auf die Nazizeit bezieht, würde ich sagen, daß es sich um einen Parteifunktionär handelt, der für einen Block verantwortlich ist und alle politischen Verordnungen bis aufs letzte i-Tüpfelchen durchführt. Man nennt einen solchen Tüpfelesreiter auf englisch WONK. By the way there is a democratic vote system in CEGT. I would not have introduced it when wanting to fix all. Things should be discussed better by email. I tried, but some members of the new group refused to discuss even before the split. Best Regards Heinz
