Sorry Horrace, actually, I am for term limits.
IMO in all politics, TERM LIMITS are the obligations of the voters.
Intersting you would post something with Jim Sears in it. Isn't he the one that you made an instant VP. Wasn't a LM until you made him one just for that purpose? Showed Jim McNiell how it was done, IIRC. Is my memory failing?
MEMORY FAILING? _ELL MAN YOU DON'T HAVE A MEMORY TO FAIL. Jim Sears was a long time Contest Director. In those days before the Lowe/Underwood team changed things, CDs, after one year, were automatically given Leader Member status as they should be. He was a Leader for years.
Jim Sears was also a rather early appointee as an Associate Vice President. He and I disagreed on a number of things however he was very influential in some decisions I made. I respected his counsel. He was my first choice as a replacement when I chose to vacate the position. Fortunately the EC agreed.
Some of you don't think anyone should use counsel, however I fully believe that there are many smart people out there and the more information one can gather the better one can make those important decisions. IMO, decisions should be for the overall good rather than simply one individual's personal gratification.
"....instant VP.." JR seek help, you do need it. JR, in your sailplane competitions, did you ever win a SECOND PLACE? Do you know what 2nd Place really is? 2nd place, JR is simply the FIRST LOSER. BTDT many times, and all the way down the food chain! [:@]
Guess you like being 2nd place.
