The job is not appealing.  I accepted my nomination because I appreciate that
CCC exists.  Somebody out there nominated me immediately when elections were
announced; I interpret that as a strong vote of confidence from an anonymous
participant.  If members believe that I will be a just and fair moderator, then
I owe it to the group to fulfill that expectation.

I have many years of volunteer experience, in organized chess and in other
fields.  Having experience deciding when to discuss situations further and when
to take action may assist me in being a good moderator.  In my role as Edmonton
Chess Club president, I chair our board meeting discussions.  In my role as
editor of the Alberta Chess Report, I decide what information is disseminated to
our readers.  I recognize that moderating CCC would be a new, significantly
different experience, but experiencing new things is how we learn, and I'm
confident that I'd be up to the task if selected.

I am afraid I don't know you well enough to have an opinion of you... but your
questions were good. :-)
