I do not intend to enter debate concerning the background to my
voting
intentions.


That's your prerogative, however my questions only stemmed from your
previous comment which implied you would vote in favour simply because
of
a
remark from an rsre poster. Personally I would consider voting on such a
basis to be utterly unjustified and a demonstration of contempt for the
ski
discussion fraternity in particular, in which I sincerely doubt many of
those commenting from unnc will ever be participants, and for usenet as
a
whole.


You may continue to indulge in this tactic all you wish. I will not rise
to
your bait.

No 'tactics' involved. Just honest interest, as the matter concerns me as a
skiing forum (and not just rsre) contributor. It's a pity that you have
misinterpreted this, and used this reason to avoid responding. It was a fair
enquiry, aimed at you and all those who have declared that they will vote in
favour, to establish the pros and cons of both sides. That's what defines
debate - a frank exchange of reasoned argument.
