1. Re: [USGenWeb-SE-L] A point to ponder [1]
David, Bridgett made it very clear that she was giving an extreme example and not comparing Linda to Hitler. Why does everything about this project have to be deliberately misunderstood and misrepresented. Veda "David W.

This was the final amendment message in its entirety... I should have added that you must have missed it, I didn't mean to suggest that you would misrepresent the motion. I apologize for not making myself clear. I do appreciate you bringing this discussion to this list.

Jim, you're my regional representative and I support your motion to appoint Linda, in fact, I see no reasonable cause for the delay. The Tombstone Project presented her name as their choice as I understand it and there is no just cause to not approve it. Holly Timm At 04:26 PM 4/7/99 -0400, jpowelljr wrote: >Well...

6. [USGenWeb-SE-L] Ponder this..... [1]
The Tombstone Transcription Project was represented by Pam Reid until Sat, 30 Jan 1999, when she announced her resignation. Linda Lewis was chosen as the representative for the Tombstone Project and placed on the BOARD-L list, and voted on Wed, 17 Feb 1999, on Motion #99-2, and on 27 Feb 1999 on Motion #99-3. On Sat, 20 Mar 1999, the NC wrote to BOARD-L: ************** "To my knowledge, the Board did not appoint Linda to the Board. The Board just accepted her as the Tombstone Rep and I subbed her to the

Dear Bridgett, Jim and Yvonne, I request that you vote "YES" on the motion to appoint Linda Lewis as Tombstone Rep. and Joe Z. as Archives Rep. Thank you, Valerie Crook CC - Greenbrier Co. WV ASC - WVGenWeb USGenWeb Archives - WV Tombstone Transcription - WV
8. Re: [USGenWeb-SE-L] A point to ponder [1]
Bridgett, My no vote had nothing to do with the two personalities involved in terms of my nay vote. My nay vote was based solely on the fact that Linda is absolutely not able to compromise in any manner. The very fact that she feel strongly about the project is not sufficient in my opinion to allow anyone on the board who will make no concessions to anyone else. I agree that the people of the tombstone project may want her as a representative but those of us in the Census Project see nothing but more pro

Actually, due to discussion on this motion, I amended it once again to remove the second appointment, but requested that we pick up motion 99-7 from the table upon the completion of this vote. 99-7 was a motion to appoint Joe as the Representative for the Archives Project.

If you don't want her on the board, vote against her. Simple as that. It doesn't matter what WE want.

Linda, My vote was AYE, to abide by the wishes of the Tombstone Project and accept the representative of their choice. Another vote will be coming up soon, for the Archive Representive to replace Jan Craven. I will then too, vote to abide by the wishes of the Archives Project and accept the representative of their choice. Linda and all: If you agree to this reasoning, I suggest you contact your region's representatives and let them know how you feel about this matter, well in advance of the motion and
13. Re: [USGenWeb-SE-L] A point to ponder [1]
Hi Jim, I appreciate your openness with us. It helps to see where people are coming from. Too often I don't have enough information to make an intelligent decision. I have been only involved with my own Lake Co. Fla. page for a year or so. The people who have been working for years are still foreigners to me. How can I get to know them if they don't take the time to let us see their thoughts? I wish others would just state their personal feelings and not get into what someone else thinks. T
14. Re: [USGenWeb-SE-L] A point to ponder [1]
Well... I made the motion, and honestly, I have gone back and forth with this issue myself. Linda has done and said a few things that don't fit in too well with the way I would do things, but I for one, still value her ideas and opinions, even when those opinions oppose my opinions. Some of those actions have been compared to "thumbing her nose at the Board". I can see where one could come to that conclusion. I have been there, thought that. I can also see reasons to think that she believes that she is

16. [USGenWeb-SE-L] My apologies [1]
I would like to take this time to apologize for those I represent in the South East/Mid-Atlantic Region. I did not vote for/against/abstain on Motion 99-8 due to several problems, one of which is that I have been sick (bronchitis and running a 101 temp). Time slipped past and before I knew it, there was a message indicating that the time period was over with. My lack of voting was not an intentional one. Bridgett

19. RE: [USGenWeb-SE-L] My apologies [1]
That's it. I can't take this kind of thing any longer. I have just resigned as CC for Camden County, NC, my only remaining county, effective immediately. Please remove me from this mailing list. If y'all ever figure out how to organize and run something without all this backbiting/backstabbing, I'd love to come and play again, but this is not what I signed on for.
