What this does is give me an idea. All I have to do is find another CC in MO who wants to tie up the system. We can propose one bylaws amendment after the other and keep MO holding votes on whether or not to pass them on to the AB. And, if the SC will cooperate, he can request the EC to conduct each such election to insure fairness. Now, if we can get two people, in each XXGenWeb Project to partner up, we can pretty well eliminate any other business any XXGenWeb Project might wish to conduct and drive the EC nutz! And, we cannot be declared not in good standing because we will be following the bylaws (if this is passed)., and there is no provision for a judgement of "frivolous" to be declared, except by the CCs of XXGenWeb Project. Who knows, maybe after wearing down the CCs to the point where they ignore any further proposals, the two of us would be the only ones voting in the XXGenWeb on the issue. Of course, we would be voted down on the national level, but wouldn't it be a lot of fun to present the general membership with an amendment requiring the NC to wear purple shorts with pink polka-dots during his/her term in office.? It looks to me like this is just one more reason (of many so far) to vote against the revised set of bylaws, when they are presented to the membership. Phyllis Rippee SW/SC CC Representative
