I strongly disagree with the answer selected. Explanation: The KudoZ points do not play a part in this conclusion. I have enough points and am not really interested in adding to them. The point is that a 'staff function' is not standard in English and would defy anyone to prove to me that it is. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-03-24 19:36:51 (GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- I have accordingly exercised my prerogative as moderator and edited the entry in the glossary to read: \"staff member with policy-making powers \" |
