To appoint. ~ its we bring this up all the time. Im also looking at the, if this is the correct record, of who missed meetings and so forth. It looks like at least for a while, theres always been a quorum so im not sure what people are saying. On this sheet, started 612, 6612, theres never been more than looks like two people that were absent from the meeting. There are some overlaps in regards to the people you named. For seat 6 i would also reappoint david pilpel. Seat 8, todd david. Seat 10 Louise Fischer. On my people that i felt comfortable with would be for seat 1 mark rumold, seat 2ali winston, seat 5 allyson washburn, and seat 9 chris hyland. So, the ones i actually named were all reappointments or they are specific to a group. Thats what i would like to move forward with. So it appears that we are in agreement on three appointments today and unfortunately there are only two of us. So, it looks like david pilpel seat 6, [speaker not understood] fishier [speaker not understood].
