Hello mark,

 LL>>>> I hear little case mark lewis would *love* to fill in for you until
 LL>>>> a new election is called.

 ml>>> you're full of shit and i'll thank you to leave my name out of
 ml>>> anything you write...

 LL>> It was a rumor.  Not one I started.  So please.  Don't blame me.

 ml> i'm not... i'm blaming you for spreading blatant lies...

What lies?  I read the same posts as you did.  Three candidates
were being considered, one of them being yours truly.  I was not
privy to the nominating process, and am totally unawares as to
who nominated who, and why.

 ml>>> if i had wanted the Z1C job, i would have tossed my name into the
 ml>>> hat... instead i actively turned down all inquiries about me possibly
 ml>>> running... i don't want that position and never have wanted it,
 ml>>> period...

 LL>> Nobody said anything about you being elected.  Certainly not me.
 LL>> However, somebody could have volunteered you for the job ...

 ml> re-read my statament... i was actively turning down all inquiries and
offers

 ml> would have turned down that nomination, too... possibly quite
 ml> vociferously...

Nominations need not be seconded.  But can be turned down.  At
least that is my understanding of basic parliamentary procedure.
However, since Zone 1 does not have a general policy concerning
election of officers, anything goes.
