re #37:  (I thought I stated it pretty clearly the first time, but
         to specifically address your question:  if the candidates
         available for election are so milquetoast that, despite
         their numbers, they are unable to stir enough passion in the
         electorate to generate a reasonable turnout, then they should
         not be elected.  what I would have rather seen when this 
         occurred way back when was a new slate of candidates and/or
         a realization by the Grex membership that, hey, if you're not
         willing to participate in how Grex is managed, then Grex
         will go away.  I think it's important for members to feel
         like members and accept the responsibility of being members,
         and, one more time, I don't believe that that is the present
         case.)
