Iz,



I spent much time and effort debating this issue with John Cato, Ken Vosecek, and a few others who were claiming the BOD was acting improperly when chainging the bylaws. It turned into one nasty argument on compuserve, and I am not willing to go through that again, and I certainly not going to debate this issue with you, as I try mightly not to flog a dead horse.



Bottom line, the membership was given an opportunity to vote on the change in the bylaws and the voting majority accepted it. If you don't like, tough s*it.



I have no problem with TRA BOD having the ability to change the bylaws without permission from the membership. If they do something I don't like, I have the option to vote them off the board, or not renewing my membership. I am busy doing other things, like spending time with my family, runing a business, and flying rockets with with my fellow TRA Members. Judging from the your opinions and mannerisms displayed here, I am glad I have give the BOD the ability to act on the bylaws without your interference!



How come you stopped posting to TRA Listserve? Can't you take critism from your TRA bretheren?



You have chosen to publicly slander the current TRA BOD, and I hope they individually sue the crap out of you. If you had made the same acusations about me, I'd drop a fair amount of change just to drag your butt in front of a judge.



Jeff Barnes TRA #2267


Since it was illegally changed in 1989-1990 time frame, the re-ratification in 1994 was null and void.

After the fact voting on illegal changes does not make them legitimate.

You should.

He's been censored.

I'd LOVE to see the TRA BOD sue someone for slander. I'd love to testify at such a trial. And I have some friens who would come out and do likewise. Between the discovery before that trial, and what would come out during the trial, I'm sure lots of slimeball BOD and former BOD members would end up in debt and in jail.

Null and void, my butt. The members approved it, period. I see no reason to nullify the will of the members just because of some technicality.

Just because it has been renamed "moderation" in no way prevents it from being censorship. Even if it is "self-censorship" to prevent triggering Austrailian specific rules for a primarilly USA based user listserv for a USA based corporation.

Talk about venue picking to kill free speech!

You therefore do not understand corporate law in Alaska.

Please don't amke that argument in front of the BATFE...
