Aki-

Please provide a complete record of all relevant facts and findings
pertinent to the decision of the SCN-A Board. 

Until these records are received I will proceed on the basis of the
apparent fact that this action continues the retaliatory endeavors of the
board in response to a complaint previously filed with your organization
but not responded to in any fashion.

I also note the fact that this action was not placed on the board agenda,
nor is the response relevant to the alleged offense, a conflict between
myself and an individual board member, not between myself and a committee.
I further note that the particular individual involved was attending a
meeting that he did not regularly attend.  I raise the possibility that
the motivation for his attendance at the meeting was in fact to continue
his pattern of behavior with regards to myself.

The easiest course of action for the SCN-A Board would have been to have
encouraged the two of us to stay apart, yet you have chosen a more
punitive approach.

This approach appears to be based on emotional feelings of facts, and not
on facts or responsible standards of conduct.

You may well wish to find me an official 'SCNA' asshole, but rest assured
that I will find the same, and with a basis in fact for my determination
of the SCNA board being a 'problem'.

Actions any indicators to the contrary I will assume that all actions on
your part in my regard continue the slanders, attacks and harrassment to
date, as well as your misuse of City property.
