"There is a proposed solution on the floor. And not a snowball's chance in hell of getting to it.

So, we are open for business. Let the proposals flow.

I actually listed 4 yesterday. Most of them have already been tried and failed.

Here is a new one. Poet and CH agree to establish a private (PM or other) forum where she will accept communication from CH under the presumption that it is reconciliatory in nature. CH knows the criteria for reconciliation which is that it begins with a sincere apology. The rest of us get no information on the dialog except that Poet is satisfied that CH has stood up to his responsibility in the matter, or not.

The benefits of this are that the thread game playing is factored out and no one gets a piece of the action. The agreement from the rest of us is that we let by-gones be by-gones (on this issue) on Poet's say so. Whatever other coexisting issues there are simply become other issues.

The problem/risks with this approach are that Poet may not feel safe allowing things to take place on a private level. CH may actually use the opportunity to cause more trauma. I would not hold it against her if she refused to participate in this solution. The other problem is the same as the current hold up, CH does not "get" something in return except an end to the issue which may not be of sufficient value to him. Or, CH may believe that Poet will use the forum to gain further unwarranted sympathy as a victim.
