brillant as usal larry - i'm happy i demanded you speak more at the nov. 11th said meeting of bylaws amendments of twdc at zion church-

when a board member attempted to cut you off as you were explaining your points and i stood in front of everyone and ' said don't cut larry off 5 more minutes won't cause the end  world of the end"-

although the end of the world seems like its coming soon because of the folks that won't let us speak as long as they speak - the money power control people-

and you finished with a question-

with all great respect for twdc staff and board members and others that have a vested interest not to let us speak as long as they speak which was about 45 minutes- and to only give us 5 minutesto to  speak that tell truth to power - and 5 minutes more feels like the end of of their world to them because they don't want to hear and don't want others to hear other opinions in public that may take away their power and money - its self defense that they practice - not  deversity that is messy but makes all organizations that are messy much more helpfull and have much more money-

the slash and burn -  take no prisoners - anything goes is so corrosive to our democracy and we've got to fight this because it turns people off politics in general and leaves that space to be occupied by special interests that determine how the goodies are to be passed out...." barack obama,  nov. 23, 2004

i was told i had only 5 minutes to speak about my bylaw amendments (and i have a video of the whole said meeting which i  will post) and good tim motion that my time was up about three times and i kept talking for about 15 minutes - no one spoke into a microphone to cut me off like they did to you-

as i was leaving the meeting  i  stopped by the board member that attemted to cut larry off and i said " nothing personal" and she siad 'guy i'm a lawyer and i'm used to speaking like a lawyer and larry can go on and on"

although my self and others have a difficult time following you in conversation as you speak so long and you are articulate probably because you are brillant - which you are demostrating and you should be able to change twdc  and the community for the better-

so larry you go on and on and i will go on and on and others will go on and on till twdc and tremont has complete deversity that is so messy that we all disagree tp agree for the betterment of all and not just the more money more power people - that has caused gentrification of thousands of neighborhoods in our great usa

The Difference: How the Power of Diversity Creates Better Groups, Firms, Schools, and Societies- Scott E. Page-

"Rather than ponder moral questions like, 'Why can't we all get along?' Dr. Page asks practical ones like, 'How can we all be more productive together?' The answer, he suggests, is in messy, creative organizations and environments with individuals from vastly different backgrounds and life experiences."--Claudia Dreifus, New York Times

cheers, yogi and guy
