Cliff Mishler
dorancoins Jul 3
I'm glad that Cliff won, and also glad that Finner was defeated. As far as Herbert, his ties to Cipoletti and the old regime of Bill Horton is exactly why he didn't get re-elected. But there is one board member who should've been defeated but wasn't (probably because he had "dead people from Indiana" vote for him) - Wendell Wolka, who is one of Finner's stooges (alongside Herbert). *********** Forget to take your meds? Doran "forgets" to mention that he ran for the CSNS Board and was soundly defeated. Chas. Edwards |

I was not bitter about the ANA election in 2007 because, simply, my feeling was that as long as the new governors are not part of the Bill Horton/Chris Cipoletti regime that the ANA can get the much-needed reform that it needs. CSNS is a whole different matter, as I come to find out. I lost because the "good ol'boys" are afraid that a reform-minded person like me would question everything they do. The fact of the matter is that I would not hesitate to question what the board does, as I have been told by past board members of some of the shananigans that goes on. CSNS is another organization that needs to rid itself of the cronyism but as long as the "good'ol boys" have control, that will never happen. |

Resigning one's membership in an organization cements his own ineffectiveness in bringing about positive change within that organization. And how, exactly, does one "make sure" someone gets defeated, especially if he now has no vote? I can think of only one way. James the Macabre- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - How can one bring positive change to an organization when the powers- that-be resist it, even if such change has good intentions? The majority of the CSNS board (including Finner) are like ostriches with their heads buried in the sand. This organization is way more clinging to its ways than the ANA. As far as I'm concerned, CSNS is one of the most corrupt numismatic organizations in the hobby but no one on its board has the guts to admit it. Try as I will, I can't seem to find where you've addressed either of my points. James the Persistent |

Besides, I like the perfume she uses. oly |
