<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for your kind comments and welcome to the
group. I certainly appreciate it. I do understand the nature of this
list sometimes and have seen how some folks can lambaste others. But I
think I'm up for it. Regardless of what's said, I'm still me and, like it
or not, I'm not one to change for anyone or any group. That
said...</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You asked if I was a Chaney "robot". I can
assure you that I'm not. I often find myself at a disagreement with the
Mayor over issues and sometimes members of the city council. However, such
disagreements are necessary and its not often that you find disagreements
that actually sway opinions in Idaho (ie the GOP controlled state
legislature). I am my own independent thinker, or at least I think I am.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I certainly hope that I can provide a honest,
non-hypocrital stance to issues facing the city, including the issues facing us
with regards to water, expansion and new construction, as well as the ever
impending issues of "big box stores" that face the area. I think that
while my views on these subjects are not unique and they might not certainly be
the most popular, they are what I believe.</FONT></DIV>
