Well Darrin, I guess I should thank you. I realize that I can be
a bit harsh, cruel even "NASTY" at times, but like I said before
I posted a thread this past spring and wanted to discuss the AKA
Ranking system. I made a few personal opinionated comments regard-
ing some of the "Board" members. When I was attacked about syntax
and defending characters and other crap, then I felt the only way
to fight fire is with more fire.

I can get as adhoc as the next person. This is not a threat, as you
know I can get mean. I realize it doesn't get me anywhere but then
again I don't need friends like that. I'm not a political person.
I don't want fame or fortune. I do look for fairness.

It is a shame that something as seemingly peaceful as kiting has to
be so complicated. I do not try to make things difficult. I try to
work things out.
 
I appreciate your current interest in this discussion. It is becoming
apparent that there are others who are also interested. I would like
to provide you with one bit of advice. (I know, I know, who the hell
am I to be giving adivce.)

First  - Don't post anything that is not common knowledge. If you do
         you are responsible for what you say. I know that sounds like
         an oximoron coming from me. What I mean is the statement you
         made regarding the Olympic Committee was, according to Brooks,
         incorrect. Although you may defend what you said in part, it
         was interperted by me and others as doctrine.

Second - I know many AKA Board members would like it if I were to get 	
	 run over by a garbage truck but the fact remains that as long 	
	 as I'm here I will be looking over someones shoulder. I am not 
	 a mean person, but I can get ugly. I appreciate you sticking to 
	 the subject. Listen to the contestants not to other board 	
 	 members!

Third  - Make the Board responsible. I know that means political 	
	 suscide, but it is important to the future of the membership of 
	 the AKA.
         
Fourth - Look to make the system FAIR first and foremost. That should be
         the priority, not submitting the results to the Olympic 
	 Committee.

Just though I'd share that with you, what you do with it is certainly up 
to you. I hope you can be the best person in your position. Don't make 
this attempt futile. Please.

Mr.Nasty
Forgot what your e-mail address was. I don't write it down.
