Member Initiative: Do Nothing For Four Weeks.
I'm serious. I'm afraid that the whiplash being created by being forced to
chose between the two previous items is making Grex into an emotionally
driven, lines-in-the-sand, frenzy. I'm proposing a cooling-off period in
which we make no decisions, and stop the running of all time-based governance
processes.
I'm not sure how to suspend the rules, but that IS what I'm proposing.
Let's all take a deep breath, and not be driven into even more unfortunate
reactive decisions. We stand to lose a lot more by whipping back and
forth and making decisions based on some feeling of
end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it urgency. Grex will not go away if we pause
for a bit. As an organizational development consultant I am seeing
serious signs of self-destruction here.

Colleen, you are an eminently sensible person. Thanks for this
proposal.
I will support it when an opportunity becomes available to do so.

thats a fine idea, but util this issue is addressed, staff should move to
disable use of the program valerie wrote to mass delete old responses. It
is fair to ask that the users have time to consider this, as you suggest

I would agree that that program is part of the frenzy and use should be
suspended as part of the cooling off process.
