I agree. Having been elected to TB twice, I know that FlyerTalk will not collapse if I become ineligible to run again. (Which, as I have said before, I will not do under any circumstances.)

I'm very impressed with the action of the TalkBoard on this guideline revision!

One of my campaign positions was to place a high value on feedback from the membership, even if it contradicts my own opinion. As such, and because while I don't think it's a necessary measure, I also don't see that passing it will have an detrimental effect on the TalkBoard, I have gone ahead and cast my vote in support of this measure.
Thank you for your patience as I attempted to balance a proper analysis of this measure with a brief recess from FlyerTalk as I dealt with some developments in my offline personal life. And with that, I'll send my appreciation for everyone who voted for me for the TalkBoard for this, my now final, TalkBoard term.

It's been several weeks...
Did I miss the notice that this well considered and discussed Talk Board "recommendation" has been adopted as policy by FT?
