Agha Al Bar should release her behind the chart

Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.
I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.

I will post results Saturday.

through, "He has nothing and his papers are in order."
"I will examine him myself," shouted the Senior Official.
Two other Officers stood by me, their faces showing con-
siderable concern. One attempted to remonstrate, but was
told roughly to "shut up".
I was taken to a room, and soon the irate Officer appeared.
He looked through my case, throwing my things on the
floor. He searched the linings and bottom of the battered
old case. Chagrined that nothing was to be found, he
demanded my Passport. "Ah!" he exclaimed, "You have
a Visa and a Work Permit. The Officer in New York had
no authority to issue both. It is left to our discretion here
in England." He was beaming with triumph, and with a
