You're right, George. Sounds like a good argument for the "sandbox" idea I
proposed yesterday. A space where you could practice you're communication
skills; where no real "decisions" are expected to be made; and where nothing
is at stake (except your egos, perhaps ;-). Kind of like war games using
blanks.

Actually, that's what this is. An policy discussion would have to take place on the pages of an actual proposal. Which the Arbitration Committee would like to see happen. There has been way too much weight attached to an arbitration decision based on extreme facts. Applying it to situations with much different facts has not worked out well.
