Dear Steve & SC members .. my
comments will follow the ***

 

More specifically, Emee made
reference to the Steering Committee acting as if it's God, and expressed
concerns "And now that I have said this, I fear I will be put on MONITER
status, or worse." 

*** First, I believe I need to
apologize for including the "whole steering committee" in my statement to
the group, as my comment was intended for Steve.  I have been assuming that
he is the one influencing all the final decisions made by the SC.  One of
the SC members has actually been very helpful & understanding  with me about
my "minor"
issue so I do owe her a personal apology as well.  Second, this was a harsh
statement to make out loud to the group (even if I do FEEL this way inside).
I am sincerely sorry for insulting the SC and Steve with my bad choice of
words. I will make an honest attempt to curtail my hurtful comments in the
future.  Steve, I know we do not agree on several issues but I do love you
and appreciate you as a person and I am so grateful or all you have done
here for ASP.  I know that you are doing what you believe is the right thing
, the same as I believe I am doing the right thing.....you do not deserve my
insults.





Complaining about the fact that a trivial issue didn't make it on the agenda
when the meeting is faced with serious & challenging issues is a little
annoying. 

*** The issue in question is a
minor one true, compared to the present issue we are facing. However, I
believe it is important enough to bring  it to the table and let the group
decide on the outcome.  There has been plenty of time to present this issue
since it was submitted in July of 2011.  It is a simple thing that could be
decided quickly. Several business meetings have closed early and I find it
very frustrating that this "minor" issue wasn't addressed at one of those
times. Again, I felt that you Steve, had made the decision to by-pass my
request because of personal issues with WSO. I submitted my "minor" issue to
the SC back in July of 2011 and it was totally ignored. You must know
understand how that feels since you have just shared how WSO ignored you.
Then when I dropped another note to the SC at the beginning of this year,
explaining how I felt about my issue being ignored, I was told that my issue
would not be considered for the agenda at all. .settled, done.
Hum..........this did seem very controlling to me.



However, suggesting that the Steering Committee is acting like God is
something that I find extremely offensive and take quite seriously. This is
not OK. 

*** God is in control!  I think it would serve us  ALL  to remember this!

Emee
