You're kidding. Jesus, I've sat and watched this all day without seeing 
this coming. A bit like the way that I sat by while Sudhir, that Indian 
chap, got drummed off the list. That time it was just sheer cowardice on my 
part (being so new to the list) that stopped me saying anything but I made 
up my mind then that I wouldn't stand idly by without voicing my 
disapproval the next time. This time I didn't think anything bad was going 
to happen so I didn't say anything!

So, I hope I'm not too late to ask you to reconsider. C'mon Jon. Hang in 
there. I remember when Sudhir said he was leaving you asked him to 
reconsider - surely you hoped he would take your advice. Well, the shoe is 
on the other foot so how about you doing what you wanted him to do?

Whatever you choose, all the very best

Dermot.
