[Lnc-business] Convention Change of Venues

[Caryn Ann Harlos]

My fingers are not obeying me.... if it is possible.  We were offered a
comparable venue.  We don't have the right to relitigate what the delegates
decided.  That is stepping way outside of our lane.

*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. *
