No, but you are requesting voting ability. Which we lack the resources |
| 6 |
for. So would be nice to see some effort there. Instead of just saying, |
| 7 |
yeah we need that. Then waiting for another to make it happen. |

Just found it interesting people from two parties required to make |
| 10 |
something happen both were interested in. Would bring up a subject and |
| 11 |
topic. Second it, and then fail to act upon it. |

If you want to see that as calling someone out. Ok, and in that respect. |
| 14 |
The trustees were being called out for not putting something to a vote. |

Tit for tat does not lead to increased productivity. |

Not sure how to read that statement. Given that the foundation never |
| 23 |
functioned properly short of it's first year in 04-05. Since then it's |
| 24 |
failed year after year. So I am not sure I would be proud of being a |
| 25 |
member. Or that during your 5+ years, the foundation sat by the way |
| 26 |
side. Being totally neglected, not even doing the bare minimum required |
| 27 |
of any NPO. |

So 5+ years contributed to the project, doesn't do a damn thing for a |
| 32 |
ailing foundation of ~4yrs. |

I am sick of others commenting, waiting for someone else to act. |

Thus I have just joined the penal gallery with all the other |
| 41 |
comment'ers. As is others right to do so, I am simply commenting as a |
| 42 |
foundation member. |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
It's just sad that while I was acting, others commented the point of |
| 45 |
convincing me to cease any and all actions. What a win for the community |
| 46 |
and the foundation. So now I will just comment like others and wait to |
| 47 |
see who if anyone acts. |
