Yes, how terribly impolite to keep an open and transparant discussion 
thus. Transparancy is bad and you should feel bad! These things ought to 
be resolved in private, behind closed doors. Else some blatant 
incompetence might be become public knowledge and we wouldn't want that 
now would we? You see, some people simply lack the merits to 
counterbalance their failings, and it'd be horribly unfair to them if we 
did things in an open and transparant fashion.
