that is exactly my point victor, the decision HAS BEEN MADE. As far as who and what Marcel is, is irrelevant. I have nothing against him, I don't even know him. However, he has obviously hurt some people very badly, was censured for it, and now is off the list, and purportly has no interest in coming back to it, so why do you and others continue this relentless letter writing continuing to mention his name, which obviously only upsets Debra. I wonder about your motives. If he doesn't want to return, if it upsets Debra, and serves no point, just what is the point?
