2:20 am
there's questions it makes sense to invite a response to questions rather than searching throw the volumes of information yes indeed the answer is in there someplace i'll concur that s c l u as well as all the members are due a response directly to the questions and that's what education it all about people ask questions and get answers process till's a repeating over and over and over and over the same points and i think that is more disprescription so the members are due a response i concur they deserve a direct answer to the response as a educator one must communicate in the language of members i don't know the members
2:21 am
know what sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us, to say is those average member knows those are a higher risk. >> i want to reiterate we're doing what we or were asked to do reach out to marge resident young to start the discussion on the questions and as president mathsd indicated we're in the process of providing the information and pointing out where the information is. >> thank you for your report. >> commissioners. >> i wanted to be at the board meeting left lane because the meeting what about here at the 8 o'clock for the meeting to meet and special meeting for 3.
