[blml] 2007 Law 40B2(c) - opponents' system card

[JOAN GERARD]

Hi Grattan,

I think it might be a good idea for you to let the Executive Council know 
this and try to figure out a way to let all other interested parties as well 
know this.

Hope you had a good flight home.... Doesn't seem like there were any more 
appeals.... were there? It was an amazing tournament from that point of 
view.... must be great directors, great players and great appeals committees 
:).
Luv, Joan
