Indeed, Barbara, it is heartening to see someone who was president of the 
ACM do so a much better job.  Your constant attacks, lacking even the 
integrity of being direct, serve as a model for us all.

Gosh, Barbara.  It really is just so VERY clever of you to add that little 
tag on the end.  Vany has made no statement expressing regret at her role, 
but you choose to invent an implication otherwise, thereby nicely 
distracting from the legitimate content of this thread.

Yeah.  Right.  As if your wide-eyed innocence has even the slightest 
credibility.

It really would be helpful, Barbara, for you to show just a modicum of 
integrity when your actual meaning has been challenged.

impossible?  really?

who was unable to express their opinion, then or now, Barbara?  You and I 
were both able to.  So were others.

So who was prevented?

Pray tell, Barbara, why you seem unable to direct such prudent wisdom to 
your buddy Milton, who shows consistent and greater antagonism than anyone 
else you direct your attacks at?

Feeling a bit of envy, Barbara?
