I mean, spearmaster has already said what he's going to say, hasn't he?

I'm in London at present on the move so forgive me if I don't immediately respond to any replies to this.
Guys, this need not "be over" as you put it until you are satisfied, or are unable in practical terms to take the matter any further.
Starting another thread here when the original one has been locked because our host wishes to await the issue of Spear's report is simply creating more noise without meaningful activity on your part. By meaningful I mean gathering the evidence you have been so insistent is required, as opposed to simply posting your views.
Personally, I am confident that Spear will provide a professional summary which I can trust, but we will all make our own decisions as individuals on the acceptability or otherwise of his findings (and for that matter The Wizard's) and obviously some of you have already formed pretty concrete opinions of your own anyway.
One thing I can't help noticing is the lack of real action from those of you who are clearly convinced that EH is crooked. This is not meant to be a provocative statement, but you have vigorously, even aggressively exercised your right to express an opinion on the incident, its possible (probable?) roots and even the capabilities of the unfortunate Spearmaster.
But I don't see any of you following up with the action you have demanded Spear take for you ie trying to get the 3 year logs and directly asking questions you feel have not been adequately addressed.
Spear has on several occasions pointed out that he does not speak for EH, so it can't be that that is holding you back. If you believe these 3 years worth of logs and their detailed interpretation is essential perhaps you should be taking the initiative and requesting a seperate approach from EH here?
If they refuse, you will feel to some extent that your opinions have been vindicated. If they do produce them you will have achieved one of your goals and will be able to assess the material and report back to the various boards where you are posting on this issue.
This way you establish your own enquiry and can directly ask all the questions and address the postulations you were firing at Spear in the original thread.
Before you pour scorn on this suggestion on the grounds that EH management might ignore you, why not give it a try? And bear in mind that this group is now a subsidiary of a larger and publicly listed group.
