If conventions are so far from lace members and basically only certain sections of the country are well represented then they are the ones making decisions. I like the idea of proxy voting. That way all members have a voice in decisions.
Wait a minute! Sure, there were more Portland-area attendees at the Portland convention than at the Minneapolis convention (and so forth), but these conventions are most assuredly not regional in terms of representation. There are many, many people who show up at convention after convention. One of the reasons I enjoy going to IOLI convention each year is to renew friendships with people I only see at that venue. At the IOLI AGM there is ample representation from members around the world. Robin P.
