Thank you for your reply, Harold. Greetings Fellow Members. It was pointed out to me this morning that various emails that you have sent as NM EC have some CC's email addresses missing in the "Addressed To" box. I tried to figure out which were missing. I reproduced those addresses below and then made a list from the NM State page to compare. (The added x's and y's were an attempt by me to determine who was left-off the emails.) Perhaps the missing people have asked not to receive further communications. I do not know. But as long as NMGenWeb relies on a hit and miss email system to communicate there will be problems of missed email. I still have not received the email you said you send on the December 5, 2003-- 23 hours before the deadline for filing, and no other CC has said that they received it. I have not received notification of the results of the Motion by Karen Mitchell that was seconded by Leon Moya asking for a vote to accept the NM EC Membership. What was the result of that motion? Did it pass or fail? How many CCs voted on it? Does NMGenWeb have a web page that records all of the motions made in NMGenWeb and the results? We say we operate on past practice, so it would be helpful if we knew what those past practices are. On my campaign page I have added "Term Limits" to the proposed Bylaws. Term Limits will allow all interested CCs a fair chance to participate in NMGenWeb. There are many capable CCs who can serve as ASC. The current ASC has been here for how long? 10 years? This is not personal, just an observation. Lastly, you should excuse yourself from the position of NM EC Chairman. It was after the 9-11 terrorist attack that you publicly compared me, Charles Barnum, with the mass murders that destroyed the Twin Towers. Only one person, other than myself, took public exception to your statement. That CC gave-up his two county web pages soon thereafter. USGenWeb Elections should be held above reproach. Appearances of corruption must be avoided. No EC Chairman should make decisions that affect a candidate when the EC has publicly compared that candidate to mass murders. This is the last time I will address the general membership of NMGenWeb. But I will maintain a campaign page for 2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018 and 2020. I will also maintain a web page for proposed NMGenWeb Project Bylaws. I'd be happy to discuss these proposals with any CC belonging to USGenWeb or to NMGenWeb. http://www.usgennet.org/usa/nm/county/lincoln/proposedbylaws.htm Since you are the permanent NM EC Chairman, Harold Kilmer, I am informing you that I am a candidate for all future elected positions in NMGenWeb. You may find my permanent campaign page on the Lincoln County web site or a link thereon. I am also available to serve on any and all committees as a member or as Chairman. I have followed all of the accepted methods for voicing my concern. I first asked the SC to consider my concerns. The SC would not. I then asked for a formal grievance hearing at the state level. My request was denied. I then asked for Formal Mediation. The SC refused to participate under the procedures as specified by USGenWeb Bylaws. I've done all I can within the system, but I will not give up. As my hero Paul Harvey used to say, "Stand by for page two." Charles W.
