John, why don't you send the letter, which will vent Chuck's feelings,
and
allow Chuck to apply for the job? Or have Techwr-l as a group write a
response letter, and have send it to the company through an anonymizer
email system? I know it's not Friday yet.. but Friday seems a million
miles
away, so this just came out. :)
