I'm not hiding my apathy here. I have even said to the other members of the committee that should I become senior student I wouldn't take much of an interest, and would only be doing it to be able to attend meetings. Clearly you have a vested interest in Fife Park politics, in which case, as I said, I commend your watchful eye. The bottom line is, I don't care either way. Not one bit. Which is why I encourage anyone who does care to run. They are assured of my vote and, I hope, victory in the election.
I don't think the issue is petty. It is an issue deserving of far more attention than I am willing to give it. However, I didn't say the issue was petty. I said that you *might* have been being petty. If you did post for neither of the other reasons I stated, then I stand by what I said (unless, of course, there is another reason you had for posting that I am not aware of.)
The Fife Park Committe wouldn't be a joke, I hope, because I would appoint people to do things for me. I don't want to ruin anybody's fun. My appointment might be a joke. It probably would. So if anybody else wants to do it they should run.
Rennie is hardly an "old pal". While he is a friend, I've only known him for a couple of years. And he certainly didn't "tell" me to join the committee. He asked if I would. I don't know why you would have inferred otherwise. Presumably it's a dig of some unsubstantiated and, yes, petty sort.
Incidentally, have I done something to offend you, LC? I hope not, but you are pursuing me with, it seems to me, unprovoked vigour.
Regards,
Rob
