I said as much when he and certain others were elected, and I'm reminding everyone now. His 'participation' (or, more properly, lack thereof) was a sham. Mr. Geist was a saboteur among us, nothing more. Despite the numerous titles and initials beside his name, Mr. Geist remains a phony. It's amazing that any self-respecting person would play such a role, but Mr. Geist obviously has no shame. Thanks for Less than Nothing Mr. Geist.
Candidates who might enter the Panel as a result of elected Panelists' resignations, should be especially mindful of what they say.I have no interest in running in an election. What will happen is that the I* Society stooges will once again appear and register to vote and elect a Panel which will do nothing once more. This has been the pattern of their 'involvement' all along, both in the GA and outside it.
For this reason alone I would be strongly in favour of new elections, rather than moving the unelected a notch up.Well then, go ahead, set yourself up for another defeat.
