aroa, thanks for the grammar lesson - all these years I've been under the impression that when you take the exact same wording as someone else has written and put quote marks around it, you are quoting them ... well, there you go, learn something new every day.
And I'm stuffed if I know why I would have thought what you reposted in your post with quote marks around it (not quoted of course) was Leddie's opinion:
Sadly, AVM(Rtd.) Skidmore has, in my opinion, previously made it very clear that criticism of CASA and individual officers of CASA is not acceptable to him.
Anyway, I'm suitably chastened now and am starting to respond to the stream of anti-CASA material. I'll start to become known as an 'anti-casaist' at this rate!
