[blml] SF Non-NABC Appeal 14

[Guthrie]

[A] Pass of 5C is an LA for North.
[B] *None* of the six experts consulted by the committee bid 6C 
without the hesitation.
[C] Three the six thought the hesitation made 6C more attractive. The 
other three deemed the hesitation neutral.
Strangely, the committee concluded "Expert advice ran the full gamut 
of what the BIT suggested, so it did not clearly point to one decision 
over another". IMO that is hardly a fair summary :(
[D] IMO the expert consensus seems to be that the hesitation 
demonstrably suggests a 6C bid.
[E] North's 6C bid is a more successful outcome.
[F] IMO: the director got it right; the committee got it wrong.
