<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ron, it appears to me that we should let the AMA
process run it's course. Let them make their decision based on the facts, and
put it out for all to examine. Then we should have the opportunity to demand a
truthful, and logical response to the process, and the basis for their
decision. The Board is, by definition, supposed to be responsive to the
Membership! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am against any compromise that has no rationale
as to why the proposed approach is wrong.We have the IMAC precident on our
side.If we compromise, then that says our proposal is not sound.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Because Steve and Dave have some kind of insight, I
wonder what/who is driving this decision. I would rather have them ( the Board
) explain, if they reject the proposal out of hand, why they are
discriminating between the SIG's, and then we can determine the action, legal or
otherwise, that we want to take.</FONT></DIV>
