That is he Arthur. On a previous thread I likened the DFO's recent epistle to that of Vogon Poetry. Something with which you are excruciating familiar. Sorry.
[For those lost here, and below a certain age, please google Arthur Dent and Vogons.]
So, I am now of the growing suspicion that AM also hails from that Planet Vogon. After all, here's what the Hitch Hikers Guide says:" Vogons are described as “one of the most unpleasant races in the galaxy—not actually evil, but bad-tempered, bureaucratic, officious and callous", and having "as much sex appeal as a road accident" as well as being the authors of "the third worst poetry in the universe". They are employed as the galactic government's bureaucrats."
And, it goes on:
"They wouldn't even lift a finger to save their own grandmothers from the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal without orders - signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public inquiry, lost again, and finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters. The best way to get a drink out of a Vogon is to stick your finger down his throat, and the best way to irritate him is to feed his grandmother to the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal. On no account should you allow a Vogon to read poetry at you."
It can't be coincidence. "Resistance is futile."

Hmmm, AM back in the fold. Thanks for finally showing your true intentions AT. This is your idea of 'good faith' bargaining, and of wanting to 'fix' the problem? Interesting. I predict that management is about to make a truly epic error in strategy. A bigger stick won't work at this point. Most of us no longer care.

It might actually be to help fix things?... AHK was quite a happy place for the past few years with him charge.
Things seem to be spiraling downhill rapidly over there now with CH at the helm of rostering and AM having left his post....
