As I have said already Jack, I do not care to discuss this matter in public,
and I should also point out that I am not the one who is suggesting that you
did anything wrong.

Michael, no, I do not feel that FIG business should be conducted in secrecy,
and I encourage open discussion about anything that is on your mind.  However,
when the matter requires disciplinary action, the Rules of Order require those
discussions to be carried on in private and formal charges brought against the
person before the members of the organization.  In a case such as this, where
the persons in question are representatives of FIG and the result of this
process would be the removal of privilages granted by the Board of Directors,
then I claim that it is not a matter for public debate.

I initiated this discussion in private, but Jack has choosen to make it
public.  I assure you all, that this matter will be resolved by the Board of
Directors, and that our decision will be made public. However, until we, as a
group, have heard the charges and made a decision as to their validity, I will
not discuss the matter in public.

Thank you for your concern.   DaR
