[New-Poetry] CD Wright's body count

[Roger Day]

If the terms of the competition are stated up-front, then I have no
problem with that. It's only if the competition is skewed behind the
scenes, then I do have a problem. I suspect a lot of women apply for
jobs which appear to be open but which are in actually not.

I've sat on selection boards for charities; people tend to select
those candidates they like. Although I see you wear a tin-foil hat.
