Dearest Mindful,

I am a keen admirer of your work, you bring to EM a trio of entertainment, education and justice with your noble pursuits. The EM debates are a wondrous idea and your architecture to make them a reality is the subject of my admiration.

I would like to profess my sincerest apologies for perhaps subsiding to my own emotions and the disappointment of not being able to be a part of this historic debate.

I do pose one consideration to you however, upon reflection has the first day of debating lived up to your dreams? It seems a shame that such a great idea has resulted in multiple teams missing their deadline and only a handful of responses given in your thread.

I do ask, appoint me as an instigator of discussion, an independent officer of rebuttal. I will keep your learned debators on their toes and probe them for clarification and elaboration of their ideas.

Please consider my proposal, my dearest mean.

kindest regards,

JR
