Jamie and all stakeholders or other interested parties and members,

  Good point here again Jamie.  But as you already know, we really
don't have a voting system yet.  Hence perhaps a chicken-egg problem.
Therefore without a List vote or our own ML software on the
proper DN for this organization we are stirring a growing pot of
trouble down the road.  Hence we have some members "Declaring"
themselves in positions sort of like the Junta's of old in some third
world countries did frequently.  Where oh where have our
democratic principals gone?!  It it tragic and also great theater,
as Joe Baptista would say...

  Next thing ya know some member will be claiming he is the
Pope of the ATLARGE...  >;)  It seems of late that Esther Dyson
(ALOC) is practically claiming she is the reverend mother...  >;)
