In fact, I think Margy may have even used that word? I simply do not believe there is any conspiracy. I only see that a majority of the board was apparently unhappy with how Margy was doing her job. If there was a proven conspiracy, then people have a right to stomp and scream all they want. If there was no conspiracy, then the majority of the board is being treated no better than an alleged cattle rustler in the old west, which seems to be how things are always done on this list these days. An accusation is made and instantly there are dozens of condemning posts. Like it or not, that is pretty much how a lynch mob works. Where list posts are concerned, I seem to be in the minority. Doesn't that make me the one with a dissenting opinion? I simply want all of this unpleasantness to disappear the way most list battles eventually do. I don't see that happening though, because each time the issue dies out, one of a small group of people on this list makes sure to start it up again. I have no doubt that will continue until the day after ballots are due, because in my opinion, any real reason for dissent was washed away under an obvious wave of political BS over the past several weeks.
