I really can't answer your questions because I simply don't know. I can think it through though. How about this - What if there was a choice between immediate and total loss if the exceptional circumstances clause was permitted, or trying to stop it come hell or high water, so that you won that battle as opposed to losing the war, and that meant you went on to the next battle no matter how difficult it might look, what would you think that Mr Bates would do ? I'm asking you a serious question because I don't know the answer any more than you do. I have my own guess but that is only my guess. How would he stop it ? Well I don't know that either but I would guess that he would do something that he is best at. Something that he appears to do quite regularly. Faced with immediate total loss my own personal expectation of Mr Bates is that he would do almost anything legal in order to prevent it. The consequences might not be an important consideration at a time like that. Maybe I am painting a picture which is totally out of keeping with Mr Bates and maybe I have got him all wrong. I can only go on my own observations. I'd be happy to listen to any alternative versions which fit the bill. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
