Ken, Please stop the attacks on me, I am not your enemy. The DatabaseAdvisors ship is on auto pilot and has been for years. Management intentionally set it up to be on autopilot. If a board meeting is called, I will show up. I won't resign but as I said I will support you (or anyone else who really wants to) in taking my spot. The board has to have a certain number of members in order to conduct business should it decide to have a meeting. If all the board members just resigned then we would have to elect new ones before anything could happen. DatabaseAdvisors is in fact a real corporation, incorporated in DE, with shareholders and officers and all that stuff. Are you interested in taking a leadership role? Can you find "a quorum" of other current members ready to stand up and take over leadership of AccessD? I will vote, and (as I said) I will vote for you in spite of your personal attacks on me and other members. I think you are serious about wanting to change AccessD and that is a good thing. John W.
