    MESSAGE FROM MODERATOR

    The letter attached comes from a long term OMT member who asked me to remain confidential. We usually do not post anonymous messages, but in this case I will accept the pseudonym as I am certain of the identity of the writer.

    I am sure many or perhaps most of our readers will not agree with parts of the letter, but that is, in my view, the spirit of Academia upon which OMT listserver was created.

    Enjoy!

    Quite interesting set of inputs from our anonymous friend.  Personally, I was more ambivalent about the venue.  It was not my favorite, but having attended 28 of these AOM conferences I have learned to roll with the punches.  As for the issue of capitalism run amok, I will leave that for others to ponder.  Chet

    Wow.  The letter to Minnie is spot on.
    I am, fyi, attaching an oped published today in the Lake County ( California) Record Bee. Reading the letter to Minnie validates what I said  and validation is always a happy occurrence.
    I am a retired U.S.Naval Officer and have been on the faculty at Saint Mary's College of California for 27 years. Also,  I  have published and presented as a fellow traveler of the CMS group.
