John
Can you give us the names again of the members of the FAIEC again? I'd like to write to all of them.

  Bad news: Dave Brown and the FAI Executive Councel (FAIEC) have
  overruled Greg Hahn and reiterated their denial of allowing an out-of-
  team-selection replacement on the Junior team.

  Dave cited previous similar decisions and a lack of a fair and
  equitable selection method as the reasons. He also referenced the
  need to contain FAI program costs, but did not explicitly state it
  was a reason for this decision.

  Holding a supplemental team selection contest, as MMM Jerry Murphy
  negotiated with Greg Hahn, would address the "fair and equitable"
  issue neatly.

  Also, I don't know the details of the previous denials, but I expect
  that they involved something like someone trying to stick their buddy
  on a team while 10 other interested people got snubbed. This
  situation is clearly not that, and thus warrants a separate review.

  Regardless, the only remaining option appears to be the Executive
  Council overruling the FAIEC by a 2/3's vote. Let your VP know your
  wishes, if you are so inclined.
