You know...putting it to a ballot would be an excellent thing. Win or lose--ALL of us would know our voices have been heard. If DW wins and keeps his mandate--we shut up and color. And we know that we have a voice...

I obviously am on the "other" side of this age 60 issue, but I am more concerned about the ivory tower effect that so many junior guys are picking up on. I'm not trying to draw a line between 42GO, Redeye, and the other more senior guys here. I do hope, however, we can get through this with everyone feeling like there interests have been represented and they've had someone listening to them. THAT is the goal. The process FDX28 has outlined, while painful, will force the leadership to respond and listen. Even if after the process the results are the same, at least the junior folks will not feel so disenfranchised--which hopefully means we'll be able to stick together on the battles to come.

So...here we go...
