I can't speak as to why enforcement is not occuring and I can't make any |
| 14 |
promises. If the outlook is poor then I suppose we just don't proceed. |

The liability is already there for the IRS piece. I hope those on the |
| 17 |
board are aware of it. The silver lining for them is that the |
| 18 |
foundation has enough money to pay any penalties and backtaxes. |

My intent is to remove the "limitation of liability" by-law which |
| 21 |
attempts to shielf trustees and officers, but really only can affect |
| 22 |
certain things such as lawsuits against the Foundation. e.g. former dev |
| 23 |
suing for X. |
