Guest H.Wm.Mountcastle Posted May 13, 2010 at 05:37 PM Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 at 05:37 PM The fact that the committee may not have done a thorough job is pretty much beside the point.

Guest Melanie Mays Posted May 13, 2010 at 05:56 PM Report Share Posted May 13, 2010 at 05:56 PM Our by-laws are very vague and do not stipulate one way or the other.

Guest Melanie Mays Posted May 14, 2010 at 06:16 PM Report Share Posted May 14, 2010 at 06:16 PM Too late. They already announced the result. They were determined to push this through, regardless if correct procedure was followed. " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
