[Vision2020] Proposal: Change Listserv Name

[Darrell Keim]

Sorry, Saundra.  According to Roberts Rules my motion has the floor.  We
can consider yours tomorrow, after the vote on mine.  ;)

Good topic to bring up – thanks, Darrell!



Well, that’s one proposal.



My proposal is that we all get back to honoring the idea of limiting our
posts to three per day.  Given the fact that there was a day in July when I
myself didn’t honor that, I realize I’m at risk of someone bringing an
analogy about the pots & kettles to my attention <g>.



However, the “try to limit your posts to three a day” has, for the most
part, worked for years & years & years, and my hope is that it will work
again because I’m attached to this name!



I could be wrong, but I don’t think most folks mind when individuals
*occasionally* go over three posts a day when actually engaged in an active
discussion, particularly about local issues.  I also think folks are more
tolerant when infrequent posters engage in actual discussions go over three
posts in a day, whether about local issues or not.



BTW, something *I* really miss are the discussions about *local* issues.
Over time, they have become fewer and further between here, it seems to
me.  I know for me personally, I don’t bring up many local issues anymore
since I no longer subscribe to a local newspaper, so I’d appreciate
learning about local issues I might otherwise be unaware of from discussion
here.



I think keeping to three posts a day should be something relatively simple
to do, too.  Since Darrell brought up Tom’s posts, I took a look and Tom
could pretty easily just combine things into one post.  For instance, the
three Farmer’s Market posts today could have been combined into one, and
the three mp3 posts could have been combined into one, yes?



So, that’s my vote:  let’s get back to trying to keep our posts to three
per day.

I opened up my email this morning at 9am to 8 emails from Tom Hansen.



And the day is just getting started.



This made me curious.  How much does Tom post?  So I looked at yesterday: 7
emails.  Thursday: 8 emails.  I stopped there.



In light of this, I propose a name change.  Instead of "Moscow Vision 2020"
I propose "Hansen's Moscow 24/7."



All in favor?
