Hwo's about bi-focals then?

I'm sure they do.  But your insistance that this amendment be completed
within your time frame may cause some who might otherwise have greater
patience to lose faith.  Regardless of your modicum of modesty, your &
other's impatience carries weight (like a grindstone).

BS> TL> From the little amount of feedback I've seen in Region 13(and the

BS> TL> there isn't a lot interest in the proposed changes.
 
TL>  BS> Don't mistake apathy with disapproval.  
 
TL> Whew...did you see me tyoe the word disapproval in the patragraph you quote
TL> Please, don't attribute words to me that I'm not saying.

People see things in black and white.  If you don't approve of something,
you disapprove of it.  This is why quora were insisted upon in our Policy
proposal... Look at how P4 treats abstentions. 

What I'm asking is that enough time be given to untangle the mess that
is our coordinator structure, and then allow them to sort out & vote
on this proposal according to it's merits.  This is best accomplished
bt y refraining from negative commects on how long it takes.  :)
