This means to me that Randy pays careful attention to TalkBoard decisions, gives them quite a bit of weight, and will generally implement them even if he feels otherwise. At the same time, however, he reserves for himself the right to make the final decision -- he doesn't allow anybody to push him around.
Well, let's see... on this matter:
  • There's the ORP thread
  • The public discussion in this thread
  • The private discussion in a similar thread in the TalkBoard forum
  • Numerous "protest" threads in Omni
  • And PMs, email, and other means of private communication

Now on top of that what is a poll beyond just badgering the hell out of someone who has already made a decision on a relatively trivial topic?
