As an affirmative-action implementation, we need to have a male fairwitness
of this conference.
Any & all male volunteers should respond here, for a future vote.

each gender in many conferences.

I already f-w cooking on M-net along with Laurel, and it hasn't got the
activity that this one has. There is an old saying that comes to mind,
IF IT AIN'T BROKE DON'T FIX IT!!!!!
BTW, I'd be glad to volunteer if needed.

Jim is a fine candidate for f-w'ing the food/cooking conference! Are other
men?

OK, with no other candidate, I guess Jim gets it!
Which of the current f-ws volunteers to be replaced by Jim?
Remember ladies, it is for the good of society!

I would be honore to serve as a co-fw of this conf, but not at the
loss of Laurel or Denise or for the most part Valerie. I think that
Mary Remmers would do a far, far better job than I could.

Don't let Tim get to you, guys. I mean, it's a sign of
weakness when you start taking it seriously. ;-)
Kudos to everyone who participates in this conference. I've
found a lot of useful information here and feel fortunate we
have so many good cooks with such varied tastes and techniques.

I'm both shocked & amazed that some of you gals don't believe in affirmative
action, or is it only when it is applied against you...

denise, you think tnt can cook? Just because he consumes, doesn't mean
he's any good at creation ......

Ok. Am I the only person who doesn't know what "fair witnessing" means? Its
not in Websters new collegiate dictionary. Someone with a kind heart please
elucidate. Mnay thanks.

The term comes from _Stranger in a strange Land_ by Heinlien. A
FW is the conference 'overseer' that guides the conference along, trims
old items out, etc. Sort of an administrator and janitor combined.

I'm still waiting for some affirmative-action in this conference!

And I say, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". This conference is doing
fine just the way it is. There is no need to add another FW of either sex
unless one of the existing FWs desires to resign.

I wonder if Glenda extends that philosophy to other issues, such as
affirmative action.

Tim, this conferance has existed for a long time with the present f-w's
and it has not suffered in fact it has grown and become an active forum.
should one of the f-ws resign, and a new one, namely me take thier place,
then you have succeeded in possibly ruining this conf. I have a business that
demands 24 hour vigilance and I don`t (at the moment) have time to add another
thing to my plate. (npi)
I already am the co-fw of 2 confs, sports and arts, both of which are in
sorry states, because I have no time.
in short Tim, Heed glenda and SHUT the F..K up.
thank you.

Sorry Jim, I forgot that you're a big businessman now, and I understand that
you're no longer interested in being a f-w here.
As for your other comment, I knew that a lot of people would oppose
my AA efforts, & I was prepared for some sexist & racist twerps to get
emotional, so I'm not offended.
