  Oh really now?  Hummmm? and just three days ago you were saying
what a good Job our chair, Danny was doing...  How does that jive?

  He is?  Specific references (URL's and E-Mail references) please.

  We have a fairly secure voting system for the DNSO GA now.  What is lacking
is the secretariat ability to generate a ballot in a timely manner.  That is not
a problem that the Chair has.  Ergo your use of this as an example is both
a misfit and a distraction in error.

  GA members are partly responsible to keep themselves abreast
of Board Actions as they are published on the ICANN Web site.
So again, siting this as a example of additional duties that would
potentially overwhelm a potential Chair is also seemingly in error.

  The Chair didn't start this thread.  So I am having trouble understanding
this comment/remark....

  One Chair and one Alt-Chair not two Chairs.
