Jep knows that, but has stated that he does not wish to be a member right now
because of grex's large surplus of cash: he does not think that grex needs
members to be paying dues at the moment.

I don't think I'm eligible to serve, having just concluded my second
consecutive term. Just in case someone decides that one month is a
sufficiently long break, I decline.

I appreciate the votes of confidence, but I'm not a member, and not likely
to be able to become one anytime soon.

It looks like chamberl and cmcgee have accepted so far, with roughly six days
to go.

Unless !member is out of date -- which, well, wouldn't surprise me -- neither
chamberl nor cmcgee have paid their membership dues and are hence inelligible
to run for the Board.
Also, I apologize for my flakiness, but I reaccept my nominations to run for
the Board.
While one person out of isn't going to have much effect as far as voting goes,
I am running in the hopes of making Grex a more welcoming place for both new
users and those who have become disaffected with certain aspects of Grex's
current power structure which, I believe, has caused many talented and vital
members and potential members of the community to decline to provide their
services to Grex and, worse, participate in its community.
While at times I seem to be more or less antagonistic to Grex, I've been a
consistent member for years and I want it to thrive like it did before I even
arrived.
In short, if elected, I intend to shake things up as much as possible.

I would endorse Todd's nomination, but my understanding he has little
interest in running for the Board for reasons that are, for him, no doubt very
good. It'd be nice to see people champing at the bit to be on the Board.

If I had more computer knowledge and a current member, I'd consider helping
out. But since I can't run, I'll just do what I can in my own way in keeping
some of the community feeling up and running. :-)

If you give blood for no financial compensation, I WILL buy you a three month
membership.

Thanks for the offer, scholar. But after a long time in donating [about 3
gallons worth] - and having worked at the Red Cross on the blood drives [so
I know the importance of donating], I can not eligible to donate any more.
Though I donated in NC, ineligible people are put into the national registry
so we can't try to donate at a center elsewhere.
