shown above; and in the event, the Chairman, is going to rule that motion
out of order, due to lack of a seconder; therefore, I elect/choose to
"SECOND THE MOTION" put forward by Jim Hawes? And/or if this same
Chairman, plans to rule the motion "out of order" because members in bad
standing on the AHS ROBIN cannot make motions on the AHS ROBIN and/or
elsewhere, then I would like to bring this onto the AHS ROBIN floor, as a
motion. I am a member in good standing within the AHS Robin; my AHS
affiliation-fees are fully paid ...and I thank y'all in advance?
host'ally yours

ps...
I would like to quote a poem taken from 'The Art of Loving' (Eric Fromm)
and this is particularly dedicated to the HE not THEY i.e. Jim Hawes:
THEY who know nothing? ..love nothing!
They who love nothing? ..understand nothing!
And they who understand nothing are USELESS!
BUT HE!
who understands
also loves notices sees..
..and the more knowledge inherent in a thing?
THE GREATER THE LOVE FOR IT!
