Almost everyone has affiliations outside of the At Large.  Some are Internet
related, some aren't.  I for instance spend a significant part of my spare
time as an elected officer of the local Disabled American Veterans chapter,
which supports assistance programs for disabled veterans.  I also work full
time and have certian duties I'm beholden to satisfy for my employer, and
have a 5-person extended family living under my roof that I have a duty to
support.  All of these duties may color my attitudes (whose doesn't?!) but
that doesn't mean there isn't a distinct separation between my duties to the
DAV, my employer, and my family; and my duties as a panel member.  This is
true for everyone in this organization (unless you're living in a basement
online 24-7 and have no other life!), and it's true for my 10 fellow panel
members as well.

Plese give all of us the benefit of the doubt, and judge us by our actions,
not our associations!
