  Hummm?  Interesting converse positioning here Thomas.  But not
unexpected by me anyway.  You seem to first believe that private
posts are not for public consumption on the one hand, and yet on
the other hand make a point of commenting on someone's private
post to you publicly...  Very curious indeed.  Than to top it off,
you seem to be complaining about the potential comment
made to you off the public record, publicly.  Simply amazing,
but disgusting, SPIN!

  Perhaps so much exertion is more than you can muster.  I am sorry to
hear that.  I hope anyone suffering such inadequacies will seek a way
of correcting such, or improving so as to aid in such a correction...

  Ah, so you individual judgment is superior than to the collective
judgment of the DNSO GA members perhaps?  I do hope you
are not seriously thinking such.

  Well no one can adequately represent the GA alone in it's current
form or in any other form as an ASSEMBLY.

  You are free to do fine other candidates regardless.  You are also
just a free to decline the candidacy as well.  It would seem to me
that perhaps you should decline to become a candidate given your
untenable and unreasonable position.  However I would have no
problem working with any of my fellow DNSO GA assembly members
as observers.  In fact I welcome them, each and every one in the
true and proud tradition of the Internet!  >;)

  What rule are you referring to?  Please be specific.

  I agree that any policy position should be approved by vote of
ALL or the DNSO GA members before being accepted as
such a policy position.
