Ad Hominem is an elementary fallacy of logic, Roosen. Your information
about the AEC in 1972 is irrelevant to anything going on here.
Another logical fallacy you perform is to assume that if there is a
special circumstance (conflict of interest) in one case then there must
be in the next case.
Humor, you say? When have you shown anything but bitterness?
