So notice to the fill the vacant Treasurer's position was not required (p. 468, ll. 4-8)?  I'm not sure their rules "clearly provide otherwise". This might be a bylaw interpretation question, as it often is around here.

Nuts, George, there was something else niggling at me, but I didn't catch it.

(How would this be a bylaws question?)

Sorry, Gary, I goofed. 

So, which is it?

And, if this is it really, then what does it mean??

No ballot stating who is nominated by the committee will  NOT be sent

Chris, I see it a little differently:  given the bylaws' language, the current treasurer cannot become a committee chair, regardless of whether it happens now or New Year's or President Trump's Birthday (June 14 -- you could look it up).  He would first have to resign, be removed, or eaten by a crocodile (personally I'd vote for #3 for this guy; he is a cad).

But if it looks like everybody is on board with the change (the current treasurer -- oh, let's call him Ivanka -- ceases to be the treasurer and becomes the committee chair instead; while Mr T -- let's call him Donald Jr -- becomes the treasurer), except for mmpullen and I don't see why either,

Also, mmpullen, I don't think it can be a breach at all ... yet:  it's worrisome, I'll grant you, but right now, and until March 1, nothing has changed.

Mage UI'n goin' home.  If for ghodds sake I an spell it right.

Which means, lotsa luck.  Which is a cynical expression.  Except that these days it might apply to Pollyannish (or Republican, which is which?) ...   O never mind

Yer demonstrably a pair of commies.  Or college graduates.  As if that's a significant distinction.

Great Steaming Cobnuts, where's the etymology come in to it??

It might get you further if you didn't keep misspelling "premier".

After a week, that's what's on your mind??!?  My arguable misspelling??

What about those resignations and purported resindignations, if that's a word, or either way a possible deed, or whatnot?

(Now I fear arousing Shmuel Gerber's indignant resindignation.)

(You know, he's a dagnab Moderator, he should dagnab well be able to tell the software to stop signalling "Shmuel" and "Gerber" as misspellings.  Unlike the dubious and perhaps contentions or arguably despicable "premiere" alleged misspelling.  And I got other thintw to gripe about, and I hope Chris H is enjoying it -- or revelling in it, I forget which is which, wherever he is, I can't keep track any more, not to mention that insufferably peregrinating Josh who used to just be somewhere in Minnesota, then somehow got to be in incomprehensibly MIdwest Brooklyn and then meandered offwhere.  Dammit you people please keep stuck somewheres.  I got enough trouble trying to remember that RONR 11 purports to have differences from RONR 10 aside from what we on the world's premier [sid] Internet parliamentary forum were yammering at them about for ten years or so.

(But at least we got Donald Trump elected president of the US.  So everything'sgoing to be fin now.)

OK please wait.  Maybe I should start anew, not hanging offa ALEX.  But I think it flows.  (In the meantime, there's this.  It's 21 minutes, let us all calm down)

(The sequence helps build up my contrib-count.)

I think what you need to do is click on a message, then click on "options" in the upper right corner.  You can delete a conversation that way.

[GcT:]

OK, but then how do I save it onto the hard-drive here, like I usedta?

I'll second that. Here's to the next decade and a half, at least.

Ghaaahh, now you make me feel old.

I did find that before, and there's the list of messages, but what do I do with them?

jstackpo,

Yes it came from the same place.  I have a Surface Pro 4 so it doesn't have a CD Drive.  I reached out to American Legal and they graciously provided a download link for me to use.

I do also have the paperback as well as In Brief and one other laminated pamphlet but it is much easier to have it all on my pc than to always carry the books with me.  I do find reading it from the book to be easier though.  I am sure I will really like the software once I get used to it and the features.

George,

They were great.  It took no time for them to provide the link, very fast.

 

John, do you have any idea what these fershluggener under-fifties are talking about?

If you were not properly notified of a special meeting (where you are a member of that body), then the meeting is improper, and no business transacted will be valid.

Completely so?  Even given p 252?

LIke from not going to Harvard and getting a doctorate, unlike some selfsame people?

Just think I'll mention that I didn't understand the original question as asked, and if it's been answered, I don't see it.

For some months now I can't even find how to access my messages, let alone delete some so that I can send and receive some.  I apologize for being ongoingly tediously absent-minded, since I'm sure that probably more than once somebody has told me this, but I'd appreciate it if somebody would once again run me through it.

C'mon, George, we're not all under fifty.

Mighod, Chris Harrison is so incisively insightful, and spectacularly good-looking.

Never mind, Rich; Godelfan is probably twelve or so, so we'll never have a clue.  Now I feel older than when that new guy (complimentarily!) called us a bunch of old mosquitoes a coupla hours or days ago.
