    3. I have to admit that I am at the point where I don't know what to do. I supported Tim's action and voted to support it. I believe that the CPII was NOT within USGenWeb guidelines and MANY attempts had been made by Tim through correspondence with Ron Eason to rectify the situation. CPII was given MUCH more than the 2 weeks that the bylaws allow. We are all in an uproar that the bylaws weren't followed in this situation. But, the bylaws are a poorly written document and MANY things aren't being done according to the bylaws. The bylaws don't even name the SPs correctly (ex. the proper name for The Tombstone Project is "The Tombstone Transcription Project" yet in the bylaws it is called "The Tombstone Project"). You may say to yourself, that is a small thing. But, wording of the bylaws has gotten us into hot water many times and the naming of Projects has been one serious flaw. At the point where we are now, a CP rep will NEVER be seated and Motion 00-6 will never be discussed and voted on. We are a virtual standstill. The bylaws need to be rewritten and some very basic things need to be agreed upon. The Board has its hands tied much of the time and when ANY action is taken, that action is criticized anywhere and everywhere. I have no answers. My brain is in an uproar over all of this. Pam
