I am staggered. The president sent this communication to Mr. S:

I am truly sorry that you found it necessary to share what we were trying work with you on to "get you on board" in this learning process. Didn't work I guess. Maybe things will get better. This is what the board is trying to help you understand that we all share these ideas on the concept of board protocol and insights.

I must say again - - if you really want to "get on board" and be a voice within the frame work of a team effort - - please please try to get the feel of how the board concept works. I and the other board members will continue to have hope.

So Mr. S should be complicit in silence and deceit? He is of better fiber than that.

Quite a gal. Quite a gal.

You know, she never signs or dates anything. I wouldn't claim the drivel either.

UPDATE: This "I and the other board members ..." bothers me.

My training is that one should put the others before oneself as a matter of courtesy. But I must suppose that courtesy is no element of this composition.
