<DIV><FONT size=4>Folks! There is obviously a lot of confusion about Drew
Johnson being unsubscribed by Jim Stauffer (as list manager) on the email list
that was created for communications between the County Council members of Santa
Clara County and San Mateo County.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Generally, participants on this list are limited to current
County Council members (if only because who needs to be receiving email when you
are not involved with the work). I have remained on this list as a former
GPSCC County Council member (1998-2002), but I send a message asking if there is
any concern about this after each cycle of elections (on my to do list at this
time). The value of former County Council members remaining on the list is
to foster institutional memory (what has been done in the past; reminding others
about recurring events and activities, etc.). Additionally, some of us are
resources because we are involved in state committees and working groups and can
provide useful state party info to the county councils. Jim Stauffer
is on this list because he has been the region's alternate to the GPCA
Coordinating Committee and has been in all respects our Regional Representative
since Jo Chamberlain stepped down from that position.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>So... Jim unsubscribing Drew from that list has NOTHING
to do with this discussion list!!!!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>I do agree that if Drew wants to be on the County Councils
list, he should take that up with GPSCC County Council. I would ask Drew
to be able to clearly explain how his remaining subscribed to that list serves
its purposes of facilitating communications and coordinating actions between the
two County Councils.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=4>Additionally, I would ask County Council members to require
that Drew promise not to use that email list as a general bulletin board...
which he has done in the past and has refused to stop doing even when Jim and I
have asked him to stop adding unnecessary emails to that list. It is as
though Drew thinks that activists who are County Council members do not see the
same messages on general discussion lists. County Council members already
receive announcements from the national and state party as recipients on the
GPCA County Contacts list. Jim and I have asked Drew to stop posting
other matters that are readily available in other places (including this GPSCC
general discussion list), and he has plain flat refused to do
so. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=4>So can we get back to work???? There is a
presidential campaign to support with very little time to organize.</FONT></DIV>
