Richard, as a member of the council who worked hard and long on the guidelines, I would like to ask the question..... How does the council propose to get the CC's involved in any discussion (not rant and rave) about the guidelines. If my memory serves me correctly, everytime the council asked for volunteers to help with anything, everyone would place their hands under their bottoms and sit on them. <g> Seems a lot of folks are letting their voices be heard now, but no one seemed to want to help with things. The Georgia Project has had some great people in it. However, there has always been a shortage of people who wanted to do anything more than gripe. I am not taking sides in this recall. I will vote, if given the opportunity, just so that I am heard. The actions to bring this matter to this point may or may not been warranted. It may have been handled in a manner no approved of by some (many?) No matter what that case is, we now have to decide on the issue. If a person is not satisfied with Tim's way of doing things, they should vote that way. If they are happy and want him to continue to be the leader of the project, then let that be known also. However, once this business is finished, let's move forward to find a way to better the project. Don't just sit back and let it all slide. Open up and let your thoughts be known.

Wyndell, As I recall, your recollection is correct. We have attempted to form several committees, with only ONE volunteer from all of the CC's. It is my firm hope that we can get through this storm, re-establish ourselves as a project, and then get on with business. We will seek volunteers from which to form a committee to review and revise the Guidelines. It is our sincere hope that, given the current situation and with all of the parties ready to speak, there will be some who are ready to be part of the solution, and stop fueling the fire. So, rather than being divicise, I would appreciate it if everyone would start thinking of ways to make the project better and let's start a dialogue on this issue.
