On a side note, our association is at odds over this as word has spread throughout and everyone has been formulating their theories. UIC says that I was correct (basically same thought I had). Have not heard from rules interpreter (probably will not as he acts busier than President Obama haha).

So know how does one go about contacting the UIC and telling him that I was incorrect and so is he

First of all, call your partner and say "I screwed up but learned something, sorry."

End of that snafu!!

Second, your association is at odds over this? DO THEY READ THE RULE BOOK?
What theories could they possibly be forming? 3-1-3 clearly states, and has for many years that any starting player, including the DH may be withdrawn and re-enter once. Not even sure why you need an interpreter for that??

What am I missing here?
