I agree that it is not easy to take & hold an office of any kind. I have done my share through the years. You may ask why don't I now? Because I know that I do not have the time needed to even adequately devote to an office at this time. As a result, I do not take one. I fully support any and all who do step up to the plate even though it may not always be said. I will say that I can
appreciate what was attempted to be done,even though it did not get resolved. The attempt was worthy. Take care not to lambaste folk "covertly on any list. It is never secret, polite or kind. In some of this I may be considered as having been unkind. I own that. Others who have indulged themselves in the same action should own up to theirs as well. </DIV>

I for one have to say, kudos to you Kelley for taking on the endeavor!! We have far too many people who dont step up to do some of the things that make this organization work, and for you to come in, new, to take on the endeavor of putting together a newsletter, it is not a small chore, and you have done a great job of it!<BR><BR>Its much easier for folks to criticize the job than for them to volunteer to do it themselves. Far too often the same people are doing the jobs over and over again, and it is refreshing to get a new face and new perspectives on an old subject. You just keep your focus on being a student, do the best you can with your other activities, and keep becoming the great person that you are! :) <BR><BR>Maybe some of the folks that are silent partners in this group would like to a step to helping us get further along. We have many opportunities in the Barony for folks to step up and take on a more active role
in the group, rather than to sit back and criticize. We dont do it alone, it takes all of us to make this work.<BR><BR>Cheers!<BR>Mirabelis <BR><BR>> From: kds032@SHSU.EDU<BR>> To: ravensfort@lists.ansteorra.org<BR>> Date: Mon, 13 Jun 2011 11:31:13 -0500<BR>> Subject: Re: [Ravensfort] Fw: the Invisible Newsletter<BR>> <BR>> How about because the chronicler is a college student who is home for the summer, and her home happens to be Beaumont?<BR>> At any rate, your wish has been granted.

That is the best one I have heard yet. Iwould say that if folk are not capable of handling the responsibilities of their offices themselves, then by all meands, do relinquish the office. Great Googly-Moogly, why would our newsletters have any need to be mailed from Beaumont anyway?<BR>> <BR>> There needs to be a meeting of the "Powers-that-Be" and get things straightened out in this Group. There are definately some issues that require action, not turning a blind eye to it in hopes that it will magically vanish.<BR>> <BR>> M Jalali ,whohasfinallylostherpatience,g'tai<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> Ravensfort mailing
