A large number of grexers have known each other for years, and when you
communicate with someone for that long amusing bits of humor are bound to come
up every now and then. Some do it more (Anne and Meg), some do it less
(rcurl), but we all still do it. Banter is fun and generally a good way to
keep things lighthearted.

Regarding the fact that jp2 lives out of town. I agree the bylaws should
be amended to allow for out of towners to serve on the board and
attend meetings by teleconference. But also to be sure, it is better if
the board members know each other in person. No matter how often you deal
with someone online, you dont get the complete sense of him/her unless
you meet them in person.
I suggest the bylaws be amended to allow for those living out of town to
serve on the board and attend by video or phone conferencing, BUT also
require that every board member must attend at least one board meeting per
year in person. Failure to show up in person at a meeting at least once
during a calendar year should require the board to vote on whether to
remove that member. I think even jp2 could make it to a2 once a year if
it was important enough to him.

plus there's the question of whether an out of town member conferencing
by phone constitutes "face to face" meeting. it may be that an out of
town member couldnt vote according to the bylaws unless it was via
video conferencing, which would I guess be one legal definition of "face to
face"

(if a cluase is put in to allow/require out-of-towners to teelconference in,
might I suggest that explicit language be put in that stipulates it's at that
BOD's expense, not Grex's? This is Richard's idea and Jamie's candidacy we're
talking about... >=} )

thats a good point too. also, the board would have to meet at a place
that could facilitate telephone or video conferencing.

... and I would classify that as an unfair restriction on the Board. This
isn't a major corporation.

I think #316 was meant for item 58 - I'll answer over there.

re #311: Both you and Richard have never been to Ann Arbor. I guess
it's like "birds of a feather..." or something like that.

Come on, if you want to criticize Jamie or Richard for something, surely you
can find something more significant than never having been to Ann Arbor.
I wonder what percentage of Grex users have been to Ann Arbor. It's probably
pretty small.

Ah, but he said (in #311) "well known" users. That narrows it down a bit.

Especially if he means "well known to Ann Arbor users" as opposed to "well
known to Bangalore users".

It's only slander if it's a lie, and by the way, the courts have held
that postings on a BBS are only the poster's opinions.

I can't speak for Glenda, Jamie, but personally I'm only interested in
responding to you when you're acting like a grownup.

That's a very scary thing about Grexers... quite often they'll take what you
say at face value. Much safer to stay on M-Net where most people will
automatically write your posts off as bullshit. :)
