How is that different from my saying "Either she goes or I go"?
As I said, I'm not willing to say that.

I think it would be healthiest for the club to change First Friday
meeting locations, but only if it's *not* seen as a personality
conflict, or a contest of wills, or who has done more for the club.
It should have nothing whatsoever to do with me, except in the sense
that it happened to be Lee's attack on me rather than on someone else
that revealed her character to the club.

It has only been 23 days since the attack.  But it's been 3.5 years
since her previous attack on me.  But she was elected trustee *after*
that, without dissent.

And yes, I blame myself more than anyone but Lee.  I'm one of those who
didn't dissent, after all.  I should have simply left 3.5 years ago.

I may change my mind about writing up a defense and bringing it to
Third Friday.  Since the accusations keep changing, and apparently
some of them were never revealed to me (e.g. "stalking"), trying to
present a defense would be like nailing Jello to a wall.
