Hi :)
Agreed. But the founders have shown good strategic planning and good planning
for the future as shown by the way things have played out in the last few
weeks. I think it would take time for newly elected people to have such
commitment to the long-term vision.
I have to point out that i am not a founder and not even a regular member.
I've
had disagreements and arguments with founders but have always had good reason
to respect even the ones i disagree with.
Regards from
Tom :)
