Fern,
I didnt even think of you for a while but with this message you are now back as
the ethical conscience of our two CC groups. And I do applaud you NOT for
personal reasons - since I could profit much more if I could read the hatred of
certain individuals. But I thank you because you put your finger into the wound
that is called the "Authoritative Personality" from Adorno/Horkheimer. These
people's character does NOT allow them to respect for example my opinions
because I often criticise all too beautiful traditions of our hobby. I am seen
as sort of danger by people who see themselves as sort of guard of the good
traditions - but in truth they stand for undemocratic exclusions of minority
positions, so in truth these pseudo-guards _are_ the gravediggers of CC which
they pretended to fight or control...
I could only make peace with such people if I presented the 10 games from my
Carnival Tournament. Without such contributions the clique is seeing you as
something dirty or unworthy or dangerous...
-Rolf
