Ah, whatever.  I try to speak to a mans (or womans) words and not to whom
the speaker might be.  (Classic Ad Hominem or Latin for "To the Man"
fallacy is to concern yourself with who the speaker is, rather than the
validity of the premises)  so frankly, it doesn't bother me much that
someone doesn't want to put their name to their words.  Sometimes its
necessary, in my personal opinion I don't think was warranted in this
case, what do they think I'll do hunt them down and call them names?
Please.

Neverthless, we (that is the GMS) could have done much better by providing
far more notice.  I admit that, we'll do better next time.  Which, (plug)
incidentally is next semester.  I wish I could say when, but it all
centers around (at this point) HCI and what they agree to, then a plan of
how many people we can expect to show up, getting GMU to agree to the use
of its facilities (minor actually, they've been very generous in the
past), and so on.  We're on it.  (Frankly a good loud protest would be
great, it might just draw more people into the Debate.  Nothing like the
facts to dispell the rhetoric)

Public comment is welcome and encouraged on this.  (Both now, and at the
event)
