Isn't bitching about this doing something about it? Although I do believe bitching is talking about something behind its back, whereas I have been very open in my criticisms.
When that's the only possible course of action besides "do nothing," then yes. In this case, no.

Who says I want more post-'02 members on the committee? I don't recall saying that. I recall saying hurray for oldbies and elitism. If your committee holds such beliefs, then surely it looks like you have my support.
Obviously it does not hold such beliefs - as I have explained time and time again.
