<TT>Okay. I an committed. I </TT><U><TT>will</U></TT><TT> post this.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>First off. The whole situation about the mediation</TT>
<BR>
<TT>committee has two/three nasty connotations.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>There is an advertisement with a dog that says:</TT>
<BR>
<TT>"Do as we like, or the dog dies!"</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>I (personally) think that the mediation committee</TT>
<BR>
<TT>is under a similar threat, and for similar reasons.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>The truth is that we should not upholdd the mediation </TT>
<BR>
<TT>committee any longer than it has a practical </TT>
<BR>
<TT>justification.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>The puppy has to catch the rabbit, or off to the</TT>
<BR>
<TT>butchers with it!!</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>I personally have no idea why Jimbo qualified me for the </TT>
<BR>
<TT>mediation committee. Maybe perhaps because to do otherwise</TT>
<BR>
<TT>would mean that he would have to explain any and all other</TT>
<BR>
<TT>similar decicions.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>I know Angela and Stevertigo from the process of bringing</TT>
<BR>
<TT>up the cleanup process. My own intent was to improve the</TT>
<BR>
<TT>process of wikipedia in a manner that would remain an</TT>
<BR>
<TT>improvement, rather than a shackle on its further </TT>
<BR>
<TT>developement. I hope I can restrain myself into not</TT>
<BR>
<TT>playing any part in its further developement.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>Geoff (llwyrch) I know not at all.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>Sannse (did I misspell the username?) I know even less, </TT>
<BR>
<TT>except a vague, and I must claim irrelevant </TT>
<BR>
<TT>impression (no justification, please lambast me if it</TT>
<BR>
<TT>is crappy; I will be the last person to require definitive</TT>
<BR>
<TT>determination) that she is a female.</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>Uncle Ed; I personally do not trust, even though I have seen</TT>
<BR>
<TT>his actions and speech on this forum. To me he is much like</TT>
<BR>
<TT>I see myself; an unsolved equation, maybe negative, maybe</TT>
<BR>
<TT>positive, maybe the very zero point of the equation...</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>Anthere: I would be much more comfortable about contributing</TT>
<BR>
<TT>in the meditiation group, if you were not a member of it!</TT>
<BR>
<TT></TT>
<BR>
<TT>PLEASE anthere, think long before getting offended by the</TT>
<BR>
<TT>previous sentence! I think you can perform a valuable part</TT>
<BR>
<TT>in forming the limitations of the mediation group, but I </TT>
<BR>
<TT>honestly don't see that you can offer anything positive to</TT>
<BR>
<TT>it's developement as a member of it.</TT>
