[Tango-L] Speak up if you're uncomfortable

[Astrid]

The article states that Chas is still fighting his case, and is going to 
appeal the verdict. There were doubts on the credibility of the victim too.
Your statement that you "received encouragement" without stating from who or 
how many people, and saying "it is important that as a community we remain 
informed"  (who are "we"? what "community?", remained informed about what? 
something that may have happened once in Denver and has not really been 
proven? ) may be no more than a vague justification for your passing the 
news around to a list of 1200 some people around the globe and setting out 
to destroy Chas' reputation as a tango teacher, whatever your motives may 
be.
Chas used to be one of the funniest, most entertaining members of tango-l, 
and I, for one, miss his postings.
