Bob, Hoss gave his reason for why he wants the posters to identify themselves as members to discuss AMA related matters. Maybe he knows something you don't.....I'll bet that his forum remains free of the non productive message traffic that you see here.
The section that RCU has set up for Horrace will remain free of non-productive messages because RCU requires it to be so, not because of Horrace's "rules". The exchange you and I had are examples of that. Actually maybe not the best example because it was both on point and cordial.
I'm curious to know what it is you think he knows that I don't and why it's relevent.
It is quite a stretch to link this request / demand of Hoss's with not wanting to expand the membership. I know that you will try to draw up some kind of "parallel universe" example of how this is not so, can't wait to hear more about that
Actually I don't believe I linked it that way. I didn't claim he didn't want to expand membership........actually I believe he does. What I said was that is was ludicrous for someone who wants to exapnd membership to refuse to answer a question for the reasons he puts forward. It's not the same thing.
Anyone who tries to claim that Hoss is not accessible otherwise......is the one who is full of it.
Horrace IS accessible, when it suits his purpose. If he doesn't particularly like you or your question he just bails.
I'm sure he would also like to see the questions and issues limited to just things that are:
feasible
necessary
for the good of the whole
Well, I think it's certainly feasible for him to tell us specifically what he wants to accomplish as EVP should he be elected.
I think it's necessary and good for the whole for him to explain how this term will be different from his last when he runs into the inevitable disagreements with most of the balance of the EC.
I think it's necessary, feasible and good that he explain his wildly contradictory statements about the PPP
I think it's ABSOLUTLY necessary than the explain in detail his restructuring plan for the AMA. Do you know what he's planning on trying to do with that?
I think it's feasible and necessary he explain why he thinks he can be an effective EVP when he considers others on the EC who don't share is opinion to be "dissidents" who don't know what the "true" issues are.
I know you think I'm just playing a game here, but I'm honestly not. These are real and legitimate concerns that I have concerning Horrace's abilty to be an effective EVP. I dare say you would not vote for your local mayor, councilman or any other individual seeking office who refused to explain what their plans were once they were in office.
At least I sure hope you wouldn't.
