Fact is if you have attended the last IRC meeting (last Wednsday, November 13) you would have found all current TFN Board members and some of the past ones who were actually doing what you have said, i.e. admitting to mistakes, seeking solutions and recommendations to the coming TFN Board. If you have forgoteen, Mr. Simon actually gave a very good piece of advice during the last TFN Board meeting that the coming Board should have among it an accountant, as the coming period will be that of financial management. So, I urge everyone to vote for Bill Chow in addition to any one or group you may vote for. As he is the only TFN board candidate with this badly needed background. Again Mr. Allisat, you would be surprised if you are fortunate enough to attend the first new board meeting on December 5th (which you can do even as a 'guest') on the amount of very helpful and willing persons of the current board to give advice and admit to mistakes. I have been fortunate enough actually by taking the initiative of contacting some of the current board to understand the issues better, the rest I had to gain or fight for :-( Not all people are actually responsive to giving details or documented facts, but never the less, they will give very good advice, i.e. if you are willing to listen, not just talk. Without listening and taking lessons in failure before those of success, we are liable to repeat the same mistakes. Many of the current board members have actually mentioned their desire to contribute as volunteers in the different committees, which I find highly commendable. Sincerely, -- %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Nabil M. El-Khodari It is too bad that some define "Democracy" Info. Provider TFN as the freedom of the membership to elect Board Candidate those they wish to "rule" them.
