Hello Jim,


and it is YOUR vision that we support in calling for you to take the
title... only one who did NOT want it would be deserving!..

you didn't think that we would actually DO anything BECAUSE of a
steeenkin' title... .. NO.. we wish only to bring honor to your
vision.

>     I am honored, but hasten to point out that "PooBah" is an inherited title
>and cannot be conferred by election!

>More on this later, but my vision for the Sprite - Midget Club USA will be a
>lot less formal. All members will be known as "Presidents" with your local
>chapter being the cockpit of your Spridget. Seriously, many clubs end up
>with ego and personality troubles due to some hierarchy of "PooBahs" and I'd
>very much like to avoid that. I envision a very loose organization
>communicating via internet where everyone has an equal voice, no one has a
>title, there are no dues, and there are no required meetings.  The Holy
>Sprite project, the BusterCluster, and other OSHIT and SOS projects are
>cases in point.  We didn't need no stinkin' PooBah to make them happen...
>somebody stepped up and we all pitched in to make it happen!

>Cheers!!
