[RP TownTalk] [RP Town Announce] Legislative Meeting Agenda

[Lou King]

Without guidance, on review of my comments I find two phrases that may 
be considered to not comply with the decorum of this list.

1.  "Although your choice of words (and emphases) seems to me to be 
inflammatory,..."

I did try to point to the words, change in fount and size, not the 
speaker nor the view expressed as being inflammatory _in my opinion_.

2. "Those of us that have been paying attention..."

I agree, there is a strong inference that some may not been paying 
attention. In my defense, last Monday by the time the subject raised 
here came up, I was the only Riverdale Park resident still observing the 
Working Session. That is not to overlook the Fourth Estate who also was 
present recording events to the final word. (Admittedly I don't know 
where the reporter lives so my singularity my be over stated.)

Neither should we overlook that earlier in the evening there were 
several residents at the Working Session. They were there to hear 
briefings(3) on topics like the Purple Line. Residents were also there 
to express their views during the Special Legislative Session related to 
changes to the MARC schedule. The MARC representative did take notes.

The addition of a Youth and Community Wing to Town Hall is nothing new. 
  The need has been recognized and in the public record for more than 
five years.  For example when the sound system used for Council 
meetings, etc. was upgraded several years ago, the anticipated expansion 
was taken into consideration.

All said and done if members of this group feel I have attacked an other 
list member, I will try to more respectfully disagree and more politely 
request changes in behavior. Truly my intent is not to "flame."
