in which i gnash my teeth, briefly

Heads up, Oxfolk:

In this afternoon's pigeon post I got a letter that began:
Dear Common Room President/OUSU Rep,

As you may be aware, all presidents and OUSU reps of OUSU's affiliated common rooms are eligible to vote at Oxford Student Services Ltd's AGM, to be held Friday 5th week.
The letter encloses copies of the company report and the 2004/5 audited accounts.  What am I gnashing my teeth about?

Right:  I am the president of an unaffiliated common room.

It doesn't bother me to get the letter; I'll just throw it away.  But it bothers me a great deal on your behalf to know how far up their fundaments they've got their collective head, down there at Thomas Hull House, when three terms after we told them in writing that we were disaffiliating they're still sending us things that are supposed to be for affiliated common rooms only.  Huzzah for organization, the left hand knowing what the right hand is doing, and, most importantly, the efficient use of your tax dollars affiliation fees.  Don't you think you deserve better?
