Re: [ga] Task Force appointees

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

Joanna and all assembly members,

  In part I find myself strongly in agreement with Joanna here.  However
WXW is right is saying that the Bankruptcy issue is really not all that
relevant.  But that is the limit of WXW's correctness.

  Joanna's need to "Snip" the many insults that WXW expressed towards
Joanna's very well articulated objection to WXW's suggested appointment
by Danny (Chair) in no way deserved WXW's insults.  On that basis
alone, WXW has yet again displayed he is unfit for such a position.
Why Danny has yet to learn this is beyond my comprehension.

  This whole situation as it is developing in "Appointing" or "Selecting"
individuals has yet again shown that such a practice is rarely a wise
thing to do.
