Fair enough Speedy. That's a different way of looking at it I guess. I bet that if you're not going to get answers face to face though that they aren't going to arrive on PPRUNE either!
Just one final comment though. There are a couple of names that although not formally part of the ARG would make quite suitable members of the COM. In a couple of cases they'll get a vote from me before some of the ARG guys.
Anyway, interesting times!
