Re: [ga] Austerity measures

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Brian and all assembly members,

  I am in agreement with you as it seems a number of others are as well.

I also share Phillips concern as well.  I stated almost a year ago when
Harald and Roberto decided to dictate List Rules that those rules
should be determined by the GA membership or at least LEGITIMATELY
VOTED upon.  They were not.  As such we now find ourselves in a
predicament that is embarrassing and terribly unnecessary.  But this is
the
sort of thing that happens when you try to engage in social
engineering...
