Point taken, Bob. Providing Theresa agrees, I would reword the motion to delete 
the word ”active.”

We think we should keep the "only." I've belonged to organizations in the past 
that in one exigency or another called in specialists - a lawyer in one case, 
an accountant in another - and added them arbitrarily to their executives, 
supposedly as temporary measures, even though neither would have qualified for 
membership in the ordinary course of things. One of them stayed on for years, 
slowly graduating from nuisance to obstruction before an insurrection turfed 
him out.
