Some questions for Dr Grove: 1- Why wasn't the procedure used by the Nominating Committee questioned until now? There have been previous instances of the Committee proposing one of their own and no one complained. Also can you point to verifiable instances of malfeascen on the part of the committee members
Facts not inuendo , please 2- Where in the by-laws is the dictum that an Executive Vice-President automatically follow the President or is it tradition? Do you actually belikeve the "tradition" is good? If so why? Facts not innuendo, please 3- You are asking that the slate proposed by the Nominating Committee be rejected in favor of a new one. Who are the members of the opposing slate? Can you please tell us who they are so we can compare them to the following people that were nominated : Art Moore, President; Jim Rassmann, Executive Vice-President; Carlos Fighetti, Vice-President; Taylor Slaughter, Vice-President; Marion Allen, Secretary; William Rhodehamel, Treasurer; Trustees for three year terms: Rita Cohen, Aileen Garrison, William Guthrie, Karen Muir, Ben Singer, Sandra Svoboda. And since you are opposing these people: Can you point to specifics that would convince a member not to vote for any one of the proposed "official " slate? Facts not innuendo please.
