Sharon, you do a great job. So do all the members of the board, they to things the best they know how. And we elected them. But to be clear, after reading the latest from Lew on official email, you are also doing the right thing abiding by the by laws and holding the special meeting in ten days. When that meeting happens, please please, all you on the board reading this post, don't violate the by laws in any way. Let the election stand. If over night mail needs to be used to resend ballots to all who have not yet voted, then do so. And let's count how many come back to know the total percentage of people who care enough to vote, for future information. PLEASE NO ONE VIOLATE THE BY LAWS!!!! AND PLEASE, STOP ALL THE PERSONAL ATTACKS. IT IS ENOUGH!!!! The personal attacks make me wonder if I am on the correct list and in the correct club. sheila Sharon Allbright <sharlen@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Please everyone understand, it is not simply that Gail didn't get her bio to me in time, she didn't get it to me at all. I never received it and Gail has stated she had computer problems. She said she also sent it to Lew Bunch and he said he never received it either. When Gail ran for election before she didn't submit a bio either so I wasn't concerned. Some people don't. It isn't required to do so. At the very latest deadline Lew sent out an email to those not submitting bios asking them to all get them to me asap. Wayne Davis sent his bio to me on August 28, 2007 and his bio is included. The deadline for everything was August 18, 2007. Every year I get bios late. Every year I email and ask people to get them to me asap. We all just do our best. But it isn't as simple as many would like to think. Sharon Allbright ----- Original Message ----- From: To: ; Cc: ; Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2007 7:01 PM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Proposals?

At this pointthere's nothing we can do about it - maybe next year. Cyndy GSDMAN2@xxxxxxx[1] wrote: Whatever happened to people taking responsibility for themselves? I know Gail did in this. She stated on the List that she did not get it to Sharon in time because she had computer problems. There is a deadline and candidates are informed of it. If a candidate doesn't get it there in time, then too bad. It works the same when you try to enter a dog show - get your entry there by the deadline.
