Rick, I can't believe that you're pushing back on the central news
story here; this is the most corrupt and politicized standards process
I've seen in the two decades or so I've been mixed up with standards.
It's a real, legitimate, big, news story.

Trying to ignore the elephant in the room gives the appearance
of being either a fool or a tool.  -Tim
