Not entirely true.  IANAL, but in a suite for damages, board members and
their assets can be brought in.  It's most likely dependent on what the
suite was about.  If board members sanctioned something like a drag race
at the observing site, then I can definitely see this happening.  But if
they behave like we normally do, then probably not.

I'm in favor incorporating, and I'm willing to help.  I just don't want to
be the one doing all the work to get it done.
