Nice letter, thanks!
"If you dislike the enforcement of ethical business practices then I
suppose IMCA isn't the place for you anyway and you've done the right
thing."

I left because they think it is okay for some people to use unethical
business practices and kick others off for it, that is having double
standards and I do not agree with that, sorry!

Thanks, Tom
