Fair Usage of TPF
Fair Usage of TPF
now that we're fairly organized in groups when it comes to tasting,
Can I ask what are the terms of fair usage of TPF for use in events or promotion.
Ie. setting up a tasting with representation of a "TPF" group as oppose to "G-man's drinking fest"
Also realize if there are any liability repercussions if anyone might take offense to one of our "TPF" group outings?

Re: Fair Usage of TPF
My take on this: any event arranged on , and also any event most of the participants of which are contributors and that features port, may be described as a ThePortForum event.

Re: Fair Usage of TPF
Or perhaps any event featuring port where there is a quorum (ie. more than 1) of participants who are regular contributors to TPF? Me drinking Port on my own would not be a TPF event; me drinking port with G-Man and 10 others would be a TPF event if we wished to describe it as such in the hope of attracting new members to TPF.

I don’t think that it is possible to rescind a statement to the House. One can make a new statement, apologising for previous errors (whether poor public policy, financial indiscretion or a more salubrious ‘misjudgement’), but I don’t think that such can be rescinded.DRT wrote:I hereby recind my previous statement to the house

I deny that the recision was ever made, or necessary.

Re: Fair Usage of TPF
I think there is some confusion between recission and retraction. Recission is, in effect, the acceptance of a breach or misrepresentation which discharges or undermines a contract. As such, a recission is unconditional and final. A retraction is very much a subjective statement which could indeed be reversed.
Sad or what for a Sunday evening? Clearly, I have not drunk enough.

It may be drivel, but it's not meaningless.
Re: Fair Usage of TPF
Is it possible to retract a recission?
If so, and even if not, I hereby retract my previous recission (and subsequent denials) and plead the 5th Amendment.
