Jack Harich wrote "A terrific organizational learning experience has just
occurred". Maybe Jack is right, but not necessarily in the way he thinks.

Can we be sure that the problem is that 1160 people did not respond? What if
we just had our own version of the Abiline Paradox, where a outspoken few
made suggestions that the others followed. Not until afterwards was it
realized that nobody really wanted to go to Abiline.

Those of us in the two dozen that responded maybe should not be so sure that
we are right that something drastic needs to be done. Most members might be
quite satisfied with the present direction.

So I repeat my suggestion that it is time for our elected officers to
reflect and somehow get a sense of where all the others are before deciding
how to continue this process.
