Please don't read too far into my original post. I certainly didn't mean to
imply that anyone now serving on any Board is pursuing a personal agenda over
the interests of our club. As Charlie pointed out, you hear rumors and always
will, and it's far from National's realm to pursue he-said/she-said story
chasing. My only real point, and maybe I should have just been succinct, was
to pose if there is any real reason not to establish a public record on how
the vote went. As Andy pointed out, all you ever really have to do is ask the
decision makers and they will generally give you a straight answer, but I
really don't see that as an answer as to why we should or shouldn't make the
vote public.
If anyone believes that the conspiracy talk that goes around is 100% BS, it's
me.
M Sipe
