Some details on this statement might help:
"...Given what happened to Lissack last year, at the hands of the AoM
Executive Committee, we dare not identify ourselves (we need our jobs
and have families to feed)."

You miss the point. I don't care to silence you or anyone. If the
issue is
important, and the issue of ethics that you raise is just that, then
we
should talk about it openly. What bothers me is not the issue you're
raising, but the way you're doing it. I just want to know who we're
talking
to, particularly when you respond defensively as you have below.
Isn't
there even one John Hancock in your group? I'm sure that Charlie
Wankel or
Jone Pearce or any number of other people, perhaps even some of the
people
you mention, would be glad to put together a panel to discuss the
issues.
But raising things anonymously like this, in my opinion, is not the way
to
initiate such a discussion. If others within the Academy think
differently,
then please speak up. I don't mean to be the only one responding to
these
people.
