Fair enough.

Ladies and gentlemen of the Forum, once certain forum members see this thread we will be seeing some deflection. Let me attempt to simulate the experience and get it out of the way early:

She does say a line was drawn under it and seems to indicate the matter is closed. She could have given a name and event but has chosen not to.

so unless a paper digs deeper the issue should pass.


but we are in a new world now. This stuff won't happen again without some big punishment.
