I know that. They expressed the desire to see it happen which is exactly 
the kind of actions that I am asking for.

What am I doing is expressing a wish to see this happen and explaining 
why I believe it is important that the board take a active role on these 
matters as a former member myself.  This is neither whining nor 
dictating anything. If anybody thinks they have all the knowledge they 
ever need to act on these things and aren't open to hearing others 
ideas, then I am afraid there is nothing more to discuss.
