What is the Process?

RE: Position Statement for NY911T

To all,

Anthony said below that I'm no longer in the group because I got voted out in a "conference call." If any of you were part of this conference call, would you please fill me in? This is the first I've heard of it.

I realize there are those who have issues with me, but this is a peculiar sort of way to conduct a democratic process. Was anything else decided on this conference call that everyone should know about? Please inform.

Thanks.

Tom
