>>As you (and I) also missed the request for someone to be the community rep? I disapproved of the rep because of past unforgivable indiscretions. The rep was the only one to volunteer, hardly ringing praise.

>I posted the request on the Universal Thread, Foxite, West Wind Threads, FoxWiki, my blog, and Tek-Tips and gave everyone a month to reply. Naomi was the only one who volunteered for a job that required maybe five minutes of your time. Since we committed to having a community member, she was the automatic choice.

>To those who disagree, I say the next time you're asked to volunteer for something, do so or give up your right to complain. Being on the board of my son's daycare and speed skating club, having been a volunteer coach in soccer and football, and having been a football manager, fewer things are more galling to me than people who refuse to volunteer or pitch in but are the first ones to complain when they don't like how things are done. Next time, step up or shut up.

I have the right to complain when I feel something is not right. Nothing is more galling to me than when someone dares to take more than they are due.
