And, many more. Hope you see fit to visit our palmy places out here some day. And, hope you're snug against that deep freeze that's descended on that part of the country. I was just there a short time ago, and got out and home just in time . . .

Dang, you're a bit hairy for 14 . . . . Hope it's happy and palmy, and you come to the PSSC banquet!

In Ohio, cooped up in the house during the polar vortex du jour, palms were in all the old movies and TV shows. A warmer place, no need to worry about slipping and falling on the ice. CIDP, Washies. When I see them on the skyline, I know I'm home.

Have a very Happy Birthday George! Ed

And may all the forces be with you!

The PalmTalk Committee carries out it's numerous discussions using the PM Conversation feature here on PT. The advantages over email include the ability to add people as necessary, to see who has read what and when, ability to edit/correct, and it is all preserved and neatly archived if there is ever a need for review, etc. In addition, the polling feature could be used for any voting as necessary. Where better to hold discussions than on software specifically designed for discussions?

Explanation accepted and appreciated.

Tim, that seems to be a very common sense approach.

Why is this document being issued now? It seems pretty late in the game. The deadline for candidate submittal is Nov. 20 which is a little over a week from today. If language in the document needs to be revised and the document reissued, the deadline either needs to be extended or maybe scrap the application all together for this go around. Tim

Keith, you are never going to experience the response time or get the answers that will make you completely satisfied - so I would temper your expectations. We all have lives. I have been attending to PT/IPS business for 10 of the last 11 hours, and I just got around to this thread. I can tell you this - that as much as we would all like instant and personal attention to all our individual concerns, this is not the job the Directors signed on for. There are many things in the works to improve the communication between the BOD and the Members. And there are other items that also need attending to. So please, back off a bit, chill out, and give them a little bit of breathing room.

Warning!!! This is an important discussion, and there have been some legitimate concerns and questions raised. But we have to limit it to that? Provocative language like "Big Brother" and references to a take over are not necessary or productive. Dr. George, in his post above, was respectfully seeking to be informed - without any innuendo - so it is possible. I am not able to jump on every post immediately after it is posted. I can make it so every post has to be reviewed before posting - but what a pain for us all. Or I can just delete entire topics when even one post is out of line. So, if we are not able to discuss these complex issues in neutral tones, the victim is going to be informative discourse. And that would be a shame.
