Geez I thought I was being accomodating by taking the time now to look through the constitution and explain it the way I see it. Perhaps it should have been covered earlier but I just didn’t have time to do it. We probably should have brought it up at a previous board meeting and worked out the details. Anyway there is still plenty of time for nominations. No one is trying to pull a fast one John.
