Several questions need to be answered:
1 -- Can we access biographical information on Mr. Fairclough? I need to
know how a person rises to such a position of absolute power?
2 -- How does one become one of the "anointed" and sit among the committee
of the USET?
3 -- What would anyone gain from prohibiting the QUALIFIED Pairs competitors
from going to Worlds?
4 -- Who is Ed Young and why does he matter to this issue -- or anything at
all?
5 -- Why would anyone poison themselves by backing such a hateful resolution
as to block the U.S. Pairs from going to the World Championships?
6 -- Anyone else thinking about boycotting ANYTHING to do with any of those
who sent "nastygrams?" I would think that the Garden State CDE needs to go
with no entries for a year or two! And I'm thinking that we all have enough
handsome hats!
