Rule Change RE-New Georgie WRONG.?..

[Del Rykert]

Hi Georgie.

    The interpretation I got reading Johns note was that he also didn't
consider the survey timely, as well as your noted observations.

    He sure doesn't convey the impression he is trying to be fair and do
what the constituents wish. The APATHY coffin doesn't need anymore nails.

    I also agree with Marty RE: getting the responses we did is GREAT
involvement politically. If surveys were handed out at the beginning of
contests and try to get 70% to turn them in at the contest would be
miraculous. Some people just hate the political process.

| Gee, it sounds like Mr.Fuqua is not even interested in the concerns of our
group in spite of the fact that he's listed in my copy of M.A. as being the
rep for district 5. I notice that he does not seem to want the rest of the
board to gain exposure to the survey results. Could that
| be because he's the originator of the proposal in question?
| Does he even monitor this list, which is a voice of a group of which he is
a member?
| How does he keep up with the heartbeat of his constituents.He must
represent a very small geographical district and be able to contact everyone
by word of mouth. And this guy is the chairman of the board?????  I must be
missing something here somewhere!!! Somebody correct my error
| here. I' ve got to be wrong......(AGAIN).

Duly noted.    I choose not to forward THAT to the board.  Again, I will
forward an NSRCA input on the rules proposals should I receive one.

to the membership.  In my mind I am not sure it is still valid.  Do not
think there was a "2004" survey or 2003 for that matter.
