Good evening Jim, This must surely be some form of jest: all be it a twisted one.
If it isn't, feed back must be given to the crazy idiot that even considered such action, that it is intolerable. I would like to have the proposers name made public so all voting members can make their thoughts known come election time. In protest I WILL NOT join the ieee this year: I had planned to do so at the EMC symposium. I suggest other list members make their thoughts known.
