[Lnc-business] Motion to return membership fees.

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

the bylaws give requirements for sustaining membership - this has met the
requirements.  There is no provision for rejecting.  I do not think it is
sound in any governing body to say silence implies we can.  I hold to a
philosophy of specified powers.

*In Liberty,*

* Personal Note:  I have what is commonly known as Asperger's Syndrome
(part of the autism spectrum).  This can affect inter-personal
communication skills in both personal and electronic arenas.  If anyone
found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas), please contact me privately and let me know. *
