But my post relating to the repetitive nature of the posts here stands: the same old photos, the same old comments lead to this thread becoming a hamsterwheel and loss of credibility, and even worse a lack of influence on events.
I agree! Although the thread seems to address a very legitimate and real issue; and some of the evidence presented seems pretty conclusive: the regular posters to it are no longer strengthening their arguments by simply repeating them and dragging other extraneous factors into the thread.
IMHO, you would have a better chance of correcting this apparent wrong by concentrating purely on getting HCAP to address the central question of whether Ms Curtis-Taylor's "achievement" actually did what it said on the tin. All the other stuff, whilst a rattling good read
, just blurs the focus on the central issue of whether or not the award is justified.
