We had a member vote. It was unanimous that we would draw the line at 18.

That was then, this is now.  Though I'm not denying your unanimous vote, but
if the rest of NELUG still feels the same on the issue, I'd sure like to see
their support for you now.  You appear to be the _only_ one sticking up for
the position.  I would say that it is time for another vote on the matter.
And yes, it should be NELUG making the decision, but weigh carefully what has
been said here.


You know what? LUGNET is a terrific place in the woolly Internet on account of
the volume level doesn't get much louder than this.

Matt might be the _only_ one sticking up for this position because it's July 3
and everybody is not hooked up to LUGNET constantly. Maybe they're off watching
Battlestar Galactica episodes they missed the first time around, or whatever,
who knows.

I can only conjecture about what NELUG wants to be, because I've never met with
them. Frank talks about his "somewhat vested interest", but really, has Frank
joined the club or not?

I'm not chiding any one person, but: it's not polite to tell other people they
have obligations they haven't chosen, or demand that they justify themselves to
you.

Shiri asked pretty nicely and I sympathize with her position.
